My family and drugs! and envy

Post Reply New Topic

Its been happening for at the last 15 years or so to my understanding anyway. A majority of my family are drug users. ALL of my cousins are drugs users! And my sisters too. they could not care less if I were in trouble or need a hand. and they are so jealous of each other ! The only people in my family who aren't drugs users are my parents, they always have been there for me good and bad high and low and i love them with all my heart! Well My ex-girlfreind has been saying stuff to my family about me. And I am having my cousins ringing me up threatning me! As a result I changed my phone number! They know I have a disability and they take advantage of that fact and for years i have been the joke of the day to them. I cry all the time about it. my parents say dont worry about them. But i feel so lonley I have nobody!

This sounds so much like my life.I just recently discovered my asperger's, but I always knew I was different. My family often teased me, even my own mom!There was always chaos and drugs.Now that I am older, when we have family reunions my brothers and sisters are all high, drunk and being mean, but only to my face,( one-on-one); When everyone else is around they act all nice.I am from a family of 8 children, so it is intence. Then they started teasing my daughter and enough was enough! I just came to a place in my life at age 40 that I do not have to be around negative people(including my brothers and sisters). I have my own family now, and I love it! If they ask, I just say "I am so busy". I am not mean to them, I just don't invite them out to my house. I don't want my children exposed to what I grew up with. I would suggest that you seak out positive people in your life and only hang around them.I hope this helps you feel like you are not alone

My issue is nowhere near as big as yours, but I have two drug users in my family (if you somehow find out my name, i'm sorry and as long as you're trying to get clean, I respect your efforts)

I've had issues with them trying to take money or even getting out of the car and leaving me stranded to get a fix. Also they've sold valuables of their kids that they didn't buy for a fix.

If they're not clean or in rehab, I distance myself immediately. Honestly they're the "jokers" imo, not you. If they somehow contact you after you changed your number, i'd even consider getting a restraining order. Real family is there for you, blood or not, they don't harass or torment.
