  • Hey, I just wanted to say I’m really sorry you’re going through this—it sounds incredibly overwhelming and isolating. I can’t imagine how exhausting it must be to feel like no one is on your side or even willing to listen.

    When things start to feel like they’re always connected or targeted at you, even if others don’t see it, it might be worth checking in with a doctor—just to rule out anything physical or mental that could be amplifying your stress. Stuff like sleep issues, environmental things (like carbon monoxide as already mentioned; there was another users whose dad went through super similar because of CO poisoning), or even long-term anxiety can really mess with our perspective sometimes.

    That doesn’t mean your experience isn’t real or that people aren’t being awful—it just means it might help to have someone supportive and objective help you sort through it. You don’t deserve to feel like this alone.












  • Hard disagree. If my father was a piece of shit like this I would definitely want to know. Keeping silent just allows the father skirt responsibility. It’s 100% OP choice though obviously.

    This is stuff that can destroy lifes.

    True and the only one responsible is the OP’s FIL who hit her up for a root and reduced her to a prostitute; not OP if she hypothetically outed him.



  • Don’t go to communities…

    So many people don’t understand people use all. This comm just seems like a reactionary meat centred sub with shit recipe videos and shilling what seems misinformation for meat centred diets. I downvote vegan sub more often and they don’t comb through and ban people for it. Though I’ve downvoted their post less than this carnivore sub recently because at least theirs seems to be focused and decent content.

    I think people should put more effort into their subs rather than vote fixing under the guise of banning “drive by downvoters”.

    Lemmy seems to have a real hard on for trying to dictate how the downvotes get used. Meanwhile users are creating community to use for their own personal blogs as opposed to, you know, a blog.
