Cannot Let Go

70 years have on yet still I am mentally disturbed by the way my parents used me as the family scapegoat. Using me to help them out of the mess they got themselves into then giving me the silent treatment when I needed their support through depression. I feel so very lost and depressed! I just don't understand how parents could turn their backs on a son who always helped them! It's time to send in the clowns!

i have been reading your post and find it so sad that the way you were treated so long ago affects you.

I am so glad you have a loving wife and daughter.

I am sure your guitar gives you lots of pleasure.

I think people who have been through so much pain also have so much compassion for others.
I can feel through your writing how caring you are,
