#lowcontact
I don't know what to do - you can't see what's false & what's true

The wall built between is utterly opaque - but when the truth waves from behind you call it fake

I no longer know you - with your ignorance I'm through

A new, glorious benefit of going #lowcontact with my parents is that I don't have to pretend everything is okay just to get through a holiday. And I don't have to pretend to think that their awful version of God is anything worth following or worshipping.

From #thepowerofparting, why #abuse #survivors should consider taking #mothersday off. Or quitting this awful job altogether

I fervently hope you’ll read every sentence in #thepowerofparting (& thanks so much to those who have!), but I feel obliged to highlight what I consider its most important sentence

Shamelessly sharing another 😍 quote card for #thepowerofparting crafted by marketing maven @mhpiep at @putnambooks. Thanks again to Molly for bestowing her artistic gifts on #tpop & to @david__sheff for his extremely kind words!

When you ask someone why they are estranged from their parent/s, just be prepared to sign a disclaimer, get comfy & take in a trigger warning, b/c you likely just opened the portal to an extensive trauma lore. #cptsd #parenting #estranged #lowcontact #nocontact

Of all the 1-star Amazon reviews for my book, #thepowerofparting (there are two), this is my favorite. Never mind that it’s not true; I take it as a compliment. Thanks, Daynie!

Day 2 of #lowcontact with my parents. I am on the warpath today. Blocking from all available socials, muting calls and texts, etc. Mom always expressed frustration that I'm a private (in her words, "secretive") person. Well, she's about to find out how secretive I can actually be. #villainera

My dear friend @dawnladavis seems to be quite intrigued by #thepowerofparting. Her dear friend Kiki seems to be … less so. You can see for yourself who’s right when #tpop drops one month from today

why does there have to be a death in the family for everyone to act like civilized human beings for more than a couple of weeks? #cptsd #thesefuckinpeopleman #lowcontact #nocontact

Hey you....endlessly hopefully one...

(As hard as it is)

This is the question you might need to ask of your relationships.

Tell me why I’m offering friends and family a refuge at my house during the holidays? 😂

Don’t want to deal with the guilt and long distance travel, just come through to my house. All we ask is for you to wear a onesie and bring a drink of your choice. #lowcontact

With #matthewmcconaughey talking about it on #howardstern, and apparently #jennettemccurdy (#icarly) weighing in again having written the book "I'm Glad My Mom Died", I see people once again talking about going #nocontact, #lowcontact, or #greyrock with #parents, as in, shutting them out of your […]

My wife was like, “don’t you wish we had somewhere to go to chill and share with watching the girls.” I said, “you mean support?” We laughed and then it became somber. #lowcontact #blacksky #parentsky #blackskyover30

Like you’re telling me half the stuff I was told was actually not my fault, or that random person you’ve demonized’s fault, and you never took accountability. Got it. Imma go over here #lowcontact #blacksky #parentsky #blackskyover30

ALSO, since being diagnosed with ADHD and realizing how much effort I put into things previously and how people took advantage of that def has me standoffish from a lot of family in general. #lowcontact #blacksky #parentsky #blackskyover30

Just went low to no contact with my parents. Any advice/jokes that'll make it easier? #enby #nocontact #lowcontact #dyinginside

#narcmothers They know they're lying. They want you to lie for them. My mother did this. She would say it in a way that said... "repeat after me." And I wouldn't. I won't lie for that bitch. They need their family to back up the lie. Keep up appearances. I won't. #lowcontact

I don't have enough energy to waste it on superficial relationships. I desire deep connection and community. And it really sucks that my family can't get past the weather anymore.
