Hi everyone
I notice we don't have our own check in thread.
I'll get started.
This afternoon I got a phone call back from my dad. I had called him yesterday to ask him a question about his work history then my brother texted me and I called him again to ask him if my brother had called him. He didn't answer either time. Then he called me back after 8 and my phone was in do not disturb mode. He called me again this afternoon and I picked up.
I asked him my questions and then tried to end the conversation . I made the mistake of telling him I had to go because I had to go to the post office to mail my partner's phone back to him so he could put a new battery in it since my daughter dropped her phone in her boyfriend's toilet.
He said that my daughter was a train wreck about to happen.
I told him it wasn't his problem so don't worry about it. I also told him he wasn't willing to pay for treatment for her so he needed to leave it alone.
My daughter heard what her grandfather said and it hurt her feelings.
She said rightfully so that he had no right to say anything since he wasn't involved in her life.
I got a huge insight into why I'm so hard on the outside. I had to defend myself against that all my life.
I didn't have mental health problems until after my divorce and that's when I got dx with c-PTSD.
