It’s cutting to hear “you should be over it by now.”

Especially when it comes from the people who caused it… or worse still - who stood there and said nothing while it was happening.

There’s no rush to get over something that messed with your sense of safety and changed the look of your life.

You don’t just bounce back from that.

You find your way back to yourself,
bit by bit, day by day..

Understating the abuse will bring you clarity, but it doesn’t give you the power to fix the person doing it…

There’s no hope if you keep going first. Because every time you step in you teach them they don’t have to…
Growth doesn’t come from what you say to them, it’ll come from what you stop doing for them…

Sometimes the hardest part isn’t what happened to you…It’s what happens when you finally say something.

Because speaking up should make things better, and it shouldn’t cost you the very relationships you thought were safe.

But sadly in some families, friendships, and workplaces…truth doesn’t bring about repair. Sadly, it exposes what was never safe to begin with.

One got to be a child who was supported.The other became the support.

That’s the difference between mature for their age and the parentified child.

Both looks the same… until you understand why it happened.

They don’t care who you are. But they do care that you stay quiet about what’s right in front of you.
And when you don’t… you lose your place.

You weren’t the problem… so you got overlooked.

It’s not just what the manipulative person did to you that changes you… it’s also seeing, so clearly, who knew, who believed it, and who never once asked you your side.

That changes you - because you see how easily people get influenced pulled into their lies and then you see how quickly things turn - and you see exactly where you stood with them.

You’re not the problem… the problem is the system that protects the mum who never stepped back…

And it will only change when someone stops playing along.

They’ll tell you you expect too much, then act like they don’t understand, and you’re the problem for being so impossible to please.

Don’t fall for their manipulation…

When someone genuinely doesn’t get it… they ask.
They want to understand. This isn’t that.

This is them dodging accountability and putting it back on you. And what they’re really saying is -

I’m not changing. And I’m not taking responsibility.

Sometimes the most damaging aggression isn’t obvious…

It’s done through the relationships in the family or group by planting labels about someone.

“too much.”
“difficult.”
“hard work.”

And over time those labels become the lens people see them through. And before long, the person who was a threat to the most toxic people in the group becomes the problem.

Some people celebrate today… others are simply trying to get through it. That’s because mother’s day doesn’t look the same in every family…
