Growing Up With Toxic Parents Changed Me

Living with toxic parents isn’t just tough in the moment—it sticks with you. I used to think I was just sensitive or dramatic, but looking back, the anxiety and self-doubt make sense. The constant criticism and unpredictable moods at home made me question my worth. Now, as an adult, I see how those experiences shaped my mental health. Therapy helped me connect the dots. It’s not about blaming parents, but understanding how those early years can leave real scars. If you’re struggling, you’re not alone. Healing is possible, even if it’s slow. #MentalHealthAwareness #ToxicFamily #HealingJourney #Health #MentalHealth
