4 signs you were parentified as a child

1. You were the emotional support for your parent instead of the other way around
2. You feel responsible for everyone's feelings in a room
3. Asking for help feels physically uncomfortable
4. You do not know what you want because you spent your childhood managing what everyone else needed

Parentification steals your childhood and replaces it with a job you never applied for. You deserved to be the child.

oh man #3 hit me hard. Like my throat literally closes up if I even think about asking someone for help. Still figuring out how to unlearn that in my 30s... it's rough. Thanks for sharing this, I actually screenshotted it to talk about in therapy this week
