I don't have any concrete advice, but what I do know is that I hate it when ANYONE minimizes my family's actions. Especially my bf.
Thank God he's better at it now.
It's completely invalidating and hurts immensely.
What I would like?
100% support.
Sometimes I just want to rant about what a shytti family hand I've been dealt. But I don't necessarily want a arm chair psych response and I will ask for a solution should I need one.
Sometimes I just want someone to nod in agreement that it is shytti indeed.
Accept that I don't speak to my mother's son, I don't consider him family and never will again.
Support this decision, because as easy as it was for me to make, it was bloody hard to execute.
I guess I just want a non judgmental ear, support in how to deal with toxic family, and reassurance that I'm doing good.
That about sums it up.
