Thinking of trying out therapy at a local psychology center for my family issues.
While I've overcome many internal problems in my life in the last 7 years I think in turn it means I've been less distracted by more external problems such as my parents behaviour that has driven me closer and closer to a sort of "War of Independence".
My 7 year journey started by taking one big ugly horrible look at myself with the support of autism consulting and then proceeding to recover, grow and build up myself from there, my parents in contrast to this day only ever blame everyone BUT themselves, and especially pass judgement on the very people who helped me in my darkest hour, people who did so much more for me then my parents did during that time, hell the most moving thing those who helped me did at first was just TRULY LISTEN, in contrast to my parents who just yell me into submission or guilt trip me with "all that they've done for me" yet they can only cite things that happened decades ago as in the now they're more known for always breaking their word when I need it and then denying that they made such words at all therefore I'm just wrong or making things up, then they act shocked when I prefer to stay in my room alone in my safe space rather than be with them downstairs. Then there's other stuff like that I'm paying rent with less pay, my brother doesn't pay rent with significantly more pay, and my parents being content with that.
If Canada didn't have such a housing crisis I'd happily be living somewhere else on my own which is one of my long term quality of life goals anyway, but that road is hampered by one of said broken promises, Dad promised I could driving practice in for my final road test, I come knocking and he flat out refuses for no reason and it's "final", I need to be able to drive to get better job as better job = my way out.
Don't get me started too on the fact that Dad looks down on his sister who was born his brother as well as one of my step-brothers who is gay.
