CONFESSION --- Hihi uh this is a slight irl vent, my whole family lets my great aunt emotionally abuse me, my siblings and her grandchildren jst because she has OCPD and my mom lets my dad physically abuse me bc of his anxiety when everyone in our family has anxiety
honestly, i think i would much rather someone try and comfort me with jokes than not try at all. i always have to put in the effort to comfort others and i'd feel more hurt if nobody bothered to comfort me as well.
