I seem to be OK on the outside, but inside ... you don't even want to know.
  • See a therapist and stop calling your parents

    Others have said it and I concur.

    You have no obligation to these people. It's nice that they took care of you but that doesn't give them license to treat you like crap.

    Stop calling them. Stop contacting them. If you can't stand it, just send a birthday card with simply your name signed at the bottom.

    Think of it this way: They clearly get some sick something out of treating you badly. You're not doing them any favors by letting them use you as a figurative punching bag.

    See a therapist. Really. You can get these thoughts out of your head for the most part if you do. You must do this for yourself, for your husband, for your kids.
