Like Fuzzy it hard to give up on family. It’s also hard to accept that if you do you’re kind of alone in the world. That’s scary. I don’t know what to tell you. I have very limited contact with my family by my choice. They are a mixed bag of untreated mental illness, alcoholism, and substance abuse. I finally had to completely block my phone from my extremely abusive daughter. It broke my heart, but I’m a lot happier without the constant barrage of accusations and verbal abuse.
