You weren’t valued. You were useful…

I’ve often wondered why people are comfortable warning you about regret than asking what it cost you to stay?..

What I do understand is that the people who say “you’ll regret it” value appearances over reality. It’s easier to shame you back into line than sit with the fact that something and someone in the family was that damaging.

The truth of the matter is - that if the relationship was eroding your sanity, your health, your sense of self…

Regret isn’t the biggest risk at all.

Losing yourself is.

These videos aren’t about taking sides. They’re about me naming the patterns, talking out the behaviour, and being honest about the impact of it all.

It’s about what actually happens behind closed doors, especially when no one’s looking.

If a post feels uncomfortable, you’re free to scroll.
Or pause…

And ask yourself:

Why does this feel personal?
What narrative am I defending?
What would it cost me to look at this honestly,
And what would it mean if even part of it were true?

Discomfort isn’t always an attack.
Sometimes it’s an invitation to change.

They say there’s “something wrong with you” when their control stops working…You’re not off your head, and you’re definitely not losing it.

You see them clearly now, and they know it… And because of that, they’ll stop at nothing to protect the version of themselves that isn’t real, even if that means dismantling you.

They hurt you, then punish you for naming it. Then they act like nothing happened.

When nothing is owned that’s not repair…that’s control.

Narcissists don't need words to control you. Their silence does a good job of that...

Ever noticed how they go silent and withhold the connection when they know you've seen through them, or called them out? That behaviour isn't about them taking space to work things out - it's them punishing you.

You didn’t lose your heart at all…You just took it back from them.

This is what growing up around toxic relationships does to your understanding of love.
Sadly, many people don’t realise it until much later in life.

When siblings stay silent and children get pulled in, the most dysfunctional person in the family calls it unity. But it’s not unity - it’s cross-generational enmeshment and triangulation. And the person who pays the highest price is the one who refuses to lie.

One moment of honesty could change the whole thing.
Instead, entitlement gets passed down the generations, so it gets inherited, and the toxic cycle continues.

If your good times always felt tense and off, and you started to dread occasions and stopped sharing your good news, that’s no coincidence.

That was someone who couldn’t tolerate your joy, and needed the attention back onto them…
