Pickering parents (Forgot to add the blue part on the tail and long comment incoming, explaining the picture)

Hey, just saw this.

Ik what you're going through, my parents used to do the same thing.

I just want to let you know that you should never blame yourself for their arguing, or start thinking that its all your fault, because it isn't.
They shouldn't be arguing in front of their kid or start yelling loud enough for their child to hear them anyway, because it really can affect them negatively. And to say that they're trying to "get to level" with each other? No.

Reading your comment, sadly i would think the best thing would be getting therapy. It would absolutely be the best thing to happen for their sake, and your sake.

What you could do is let them know about how you're feeling about their arguing every day, and how emotionally drained it makes you and probably both of them, as well. It is never good yelling at someone just to get your point across, and usually the person just hears the yelling instead of the point the other is trying to convey.

Just remember, it is going to be okay. The entire drawing stream is here for you, and we all love you.
I hope you and your parents get through this in the healthiest way possible.
We really do love ya, man. <3

Thanks man 👍

I feel a lot better already, but thank you. I really needed that

So... yeah this is what has been going on lately. My parents arguing over the dumbest things known to mankind. This has been going on for a while. And if I have to estimate how long it has been going on, I would say at least 3 months.

Every day, or if not every day, every week, whenever the house needs fixing, my parents would always argue about what to do this and how to do that. And no its not just a civil argument. Oh no no. The argument involves a lot of yelling. And honestly that makes me emotionally drained.

I hate seeing my parents fight, but they always do. They say its not a big deal if they scream at each other. They say they just want to "get to level with the other", but I see it as a totally different way, but they don't understand.

But this gets worse. Just now, today, that while they were arguing about the tiniest thing possible, my mom says to my dad that if the continue fighting, then they shouldn't be together. Now one can say that they didn't mean it, and a tiny part of me says that she didn't mean it, but that made me emotionally depressed. And as I'm making this comment right now, I'm still am.

My parents have been together for a long time. And they are the best parents that I could ever have. I'm grateful for them being in my life. But saying that over the dumbest things really makes me pissed, it makes me sad, it makes my anxiety go through the roof, if they can't even keep their chill intact. Instead they argue like premature children.

My parents have the worst communication I have ever seen, and I have to live with it. They had been doing this since I've been small, and almost nothing has changed. My parents say that they are trying their best to be better, but I'm tired of hearing that bullshit excuse. They don't get better. They don't even try to get better. When one starts, its the same record over and over again. And I'm just getting so f**king sick of it. Its as if they don't care about me. If they were really doing it for me, they would've not done this a long time ago.

I wish they took therapy classes, or at least go to counseling so the arguments can be a rarity. But my parents are stubborn as f**k saying that "they're fine", but they don't sound fine when they argue. They never do.

I feel useless. I feel depressed, and I feel unmotivated for anything. All I feel like right now is just lay on my bed while listening to depressing music while I cry myself to sleep. I need help and encouragement rn.

I'm sorry that's happening- and ik that feeling well too cuz its been happening for me for 3 years bcs my step dad is making bad choices and my mom wants to get away from it and threatens to divorce, sad thing is we have gathered evidence just incase she ever does.

But he hasn't gone out drinking in the last month so we hope it stays that way- cuz only 4 months ago he started doing it daily again, but ever since my mom got so bad he has been trying to be here for us more so we are hopeful.

I'm rlly sorry about that though I can imagine it's way worse for you because I really don't give a shit about what happens with my family as long as me my mom and my sister are ok.

Enough about me though, I'm really sorry about that I really hope shit doesn't have to come done to that, none of it is your fault and them saying they are trying is bull crap cuz look how they are making you feel. They are complete idiots and know that they need help but won't take it.

You're parents seem like great people to you from all the stories so hopefully they open their f**king eyes and see what they are doing and how it's a toxic looking relationship and effecting people around them. Now I have even more reason to not like them I hate that they make you feel that way, cuz no one should. They should at least try anything to keep their marriage together and stay for you and your brothers ugh they piss me off.

Anyway sorry I spoke crap about the pieces of shit. I hope they f**king grow up. Anyway if you wanna vent more then I'm here- hope you feel better. :"(

Ty biatch 👍
