When You Choose to Go No Contact, Be Prepared

When you chose to let go of family be prepared to lose more than just the one person you are walking away from, because there are always going to be more casualties than you assume.

If the time comes to walk away from family, understand there will be fallout.

I have spent a lot of time questioning my own recollection of events and I have felt like a crazy person. I’ve spent uncountable amounts of hours being angry and hurt, crying over losing my family and certain things still jar the pain I feel over the loss at random times.

I don’t feel any sadness at going no contact and ghosting my father, but sometimes as he has done it to me and has no regrets.

My therapist tells me over and over a toxic people are unwell and incapable of acting like a fully functioning part of society. For example, while most people will operate at 100%, a toxic person choses to be stuck at 50 or 60% because this is how they like it.

Letting go of family is a choice I would make over again and again to heal.

I see the fallout from the emotional abuse from my toxic mother every day in my personal choices. As hard as the process of letting go has been, I know it was the right decision for me and to stop the abuser from me, and it’ll continue to be the right decision.
