Today I learned that setting personal boundaries can be crucial for our well-being, even when it involves distancing ourselves from our own family members. It's important to remember that blood ties don't automatically dictate the relationships we need to maintain in our lives. By prioritizing our emotional and mental health, we can make the tough decision to separate ourselves from overbearing or toxic family members.

In this case in referring to a toxic, abusive, and absentee parent trying to goad me into political and religious conversations. I'm in my 40s now and I'm just not having it.
Reminds me of that saying, before you decide you're depressed, make sure you're not just surrounded by assholes. Sorry this time is painful. I'm glad you're taking care of you. ๐ซ
