Story time...

In #dysfunctionalfamilies, anything can be used against you as a weapon for manipulation, control, and psychological & emotional abuse. So much is learned in hindsight and after you've removed yourself from a toxic environment.

Jennette McCurdy was six years old when she had her first acting audition. Her mother's dream was for her only daughter to become a star, whatever it took, and Jennette would do anything to make her mother happy. So she went along with what her mother called "calorie restriction", weighing herself five times a day and ultimately shrinking down to 89 pounds. She endured extensive at-home makeovers using knockoff whitening strips, hot curlers, eyelash tint, and gobs of bleach to enhance her natural beauty.

She was showered by her mother until age sixteen while sharing her diaries, an email account, and all her earnings. The dream finally comes true when Jennette is cast in a new Nickelodeon series called iCarly and is thrust into fame. But for Jennette, the dream is a nightmare.

Practically overnight, her fake smile and cheesy airbrushed hair-do is plastered on billboards across the country. And though her mom is ecstatic, ordering her to smile for the paparazzi (with whom she's on a first-name basis) and sign endless autographs for fans who only know her by her character's name, Jennette is riddled with anxiety, shame and self-loathing, which manifest into eating disorders, addiction and a series of unhealthy relationships.These issues only get worse when Jennette's mother dies of cancer. 

Finally, after discovering therapy and coldly examining the relationship with her mother, Jennette embarks on recovery and decides for the first time in her life what she really wan

Don't you just love it when, out of the blue, a manipulative and toxic long-lost relative sends you a birthday card in lieu of a genuine apology? Plausible deniability at its finest. #DysfunctionalFamilies #EmotionalImmaturity #Healing #ConfessionsBooks

Breakdowns, Burnout, and Betrayal Reflections on family enmeshment and the year that broke my family of origin apart.

Writing on my Substack about how everything in my life changed/fell apart in 2009 would be incomplete without writing about my parents’ divorce. I wrote MANY drafts of this trying to do my best to share only my experience. #burnout #neurodivergent #dysfunctionalfamilies

A family is gathered around a table with a white tablecloth. The table is set with multiple chalices with rainbows coming out of them. Green baby dragons fly overhead and play on the table. A large gray dragon observes the activities from afar. (Image on the left half is a reversal of the image on the right as described above).

Bold caps for GOD? glows in yellow spilling over onto DAMN, which is in dark blue. The subtitle is in black, italic.

Below that is an image of the fossil I was directed to in Ch. 1. My name is at the bottom in the same bold, blue lettering over a broad band of yellow.
