This house is so fucking gloomy and depressing. All the time. It’s oppressive. Religious doctrine looms over it like a vengeful spirit exacting punishment on an innocent family who recently moved in; except, we’ve been like this since before I was born.

#vent tw #exjw #ex cult #we never did much #we still don’t do much #I’ve always rationalized it by believing my parents couldn’t do much because of their health conditions #which is true #but there’s more to it #a lot of those health conditions are being directly exacerbated by issues relating to the cult #Dad’s elder trauma fucks him over; dad’s trauma responses stress out my mom and fuck her over #their heightened anxiety causes them to scrutinize and overprotect me which fucks me over #the dog throws up all the time because of anxiety #could it possibly be because everyone in the house is anxious and he can sense it?#the tension is palpable #We never did much because we’re constantly getting the life sucked out of us
