Related: About this forumI'm feeling more euphoric about being free at last from my abusive family of origin, than anything else.
No sadness, just relief.
I tried to be a good daughter and provide support while he is dying. He was an asshole to the very end.
Im seeing my family of origin very clearly for the first time in my life.
And it is a relief to be free of them.
