Taking care of a child with special needs (and no improvement) for 15+ years. Financially taking care of parents for 20+ years. Given up on marriage. Feel lost and just want some peace in life. Career is not going anywhere, and the worst part is I don't even care anymore. Tried therapy but couldn't focus on the required journaling. End of rant. Have a good weekend.

Start YouTube channel with the special kid in it. New life.
I'm not sure how I can help other parents in similar situations. Mine isn't a success story.
The journey is eveything. Other parents will relate.
Why are you taking care of parents financially? Why did they stop working or do you have siblings to help?
They aren't in the wrong. I am their only option.
This is rare to actually be the truth.. Usual scenario is parents retired on small but okay pension now guilt high earning sensitive child to enhance their lifestyle and siblings say they have nothing to give even though they could give same % You should see therapist and get objective view of your situation
your parents should stop leeching on you the moment they know their grandkid has special needs
Please don't say that. They dont have any other option. It doesn't help me, but I shouldn't have mentioned it.

Usually I troll, but I want to real for a second. You are a blessing my friend, you take care of those that need you the most - you are bigger than those hardships and thatโs what keeps you going. Take care of yourself, celebrate the little things, laugh even when itโs not that funny, and be open to what life gives you. You got the hard assignment my friend, the guy upstairs knows youโre the real deal, thatโs why he gave it to you ๐ซก๐
