Re: VERBAL ABUSERS !

I grew up in a dysfunctional family. My mother and sister were always verbally abusive to each other and kind of developed this love-hate relationship. My father died after 17 years of separation, my brother took an intentional overdose of drugs, and since I am the most gentle person in the family, I was always the "safe" target for my mother and sister's frustrations. Now, my mother is dying, my sister terrorizes my mother and anytime I try to help my mother, my mother refuses my interference. So, if you are hoping the abuse will stop, think again. It will carry on for generations. Verbal abuse is a drug that the abuser constantly needs more of every day, and they pick on the most the most vulnerable people they can find. That way, they can steal (manipulate) your emotions for their ego AND for their own self-esteem. They know that they themselves are shallow, simple-minded slugs (subconsciously), that's why they need to steal your glory and nobility (you are a worthy target, not just convenient for their cowardice). They are frantic about their lack of reedeeming qualities and are control freaks in order to make up for that lack and give their life some meaning. They are Predators and will not stop finding people to destroy. You are only the beginning. It's not just simple anger management, it's that they don't have a personality (shallow) and need yours.I don't know if there is a 12 step program for abusers, even if there is, that would be chancing a relapse later in life. The only real solution is to leave. Tweet
