I grew up with a lot of the same comments.
Their drama always exceeded mine and I felt blamed for their problems as well as guilty for having my own.
The truth is (for me at least) that they know nothing about who I am and I have been made to sink or swim no matter the circumstance.
No matter how “independent” I am though, I wish I weren’t me because then I could be free from their influence.
It’s hard to be free.
