6 signs you grew up with a reactive parent who had trouble controlling their emotions, even if you're close with them

@lemmydripzdotz123 · 11 months ago

You hold in your emotions without even realizing it
You’re always on the lookout for any hint of conflict
You can be drawn to “loose cannon” friends and partners
Your parent still tries to control your adult life
Setting boundaries is difficult for you
It takes work to understand your own feelings

Thank you so much. That is an article I very much wanted to read (I’m certain my step mom had ptsd from her youth of avoiding bombs in Germany). I look forward to reading it.

Tbf, a majority of these indicators are also signs of autism.
