> It must have been the abuse.
No, I'm a man that has been abused in multiple fashions.
> I meant let go of the past. Please do not assume I can do this.I guess i can't.. and trying too hard to do this, in my book, can lead to false "letting go" which is just as harmful.
> My son doesn't need me, these days (which is fine). He comes home and we have a perfectly nice time watching Game of Thrones or something else. Our daughter still needs us, psychologically. The aim of parenting is perhaps to help the kid need you no longer? Like therapy?
Probably. Therapy is the opposite of what my parents tried to do.
> It would be dreadful to be caught in a situation of endless disapproval. Having said that, I kind of disapprove of the world. Somehow my kids escaped.Me too. A lot of it is my depression and what I've come to see through depression. (hospitals, clinics, dysfunctional families (i can spot them with bandaged eyes).
Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, severe
Refractory atypical double depression, severe
Social anxiety disorder, moderate
ADD, inattentive, moderate
