Hey, im Tipsu and im 26.
Im not sure what im suppost to say here and it's hard to know where to start because there's so much to say. But I think the best place to start is my childhood. I grew up in a home where emotional neglect was part of my daily life. My mom was emotionally unavailable, and sometimes physically abusive, which left me feeling worthless and unimportant. My dad was abusive to my mom and sister, and his behavior created a lot of fear for me as a child.
I've also had some difficult experiences with my stepdad that are hard to explain and even harder to process. Those experiences left me confused about my worth and boundaries.
Because of all of this, I've struggled a lot with feeling like I don't matter.
I've often felt alone, desperate for connection, and unsure of who I am or what I deserve. I want to find people who might understand these feelings and what it's like to grow up in an environment that felt unsafe and invalidating.
I hope that by being here, I can connect with others who've had similar experiences and know what it's like to feel this way. I'm still trying to make sense of everything.
