The role of the parent should be to comfort, create a safe space, and basically an overall caregiver, someone who takes care of you but doesn't demand anything from you. I think that's hard to do for yourself because that seems like a lonely road. I think trying to stregthen your emotional network with the people already in your life may provide that kind of caring parent support you desire.
