What my dysfunctional family system taught me, a thread:

[𝐍𝐲𝐬𝐬𝐚🩺 @PsychedRN]

Emotionally immature parents place unnecessary burdens on children

[Black Therapist 💕 @NicoleLewisLCSW]

Just because something is normalized doesn’t mean it’s okay.

[𝐍𝐲𝐬𝐬𝐚🩺 @PsychedRN]

What an interesting thing to say out loud.

[Nate Postlethwait @nate_postlethwt]

No one has ever healed from an abusive family by hearing "But, they're your family."

[Black Therapist 💕 @NicoleLewisLCSW]

1. Therapy
2. Psych meds
3. Cutting off family
4. Telling people how they make me feel as soon as I notice I feel some type of way

[Black Therapist 💕 @NicoleLewisLCSW]

Disrespectfully, MY PLACE is to protect MY FAMILY.

[Black Therapist 💕 @NicoleLewisLCSW]

It’s not a child’s job to reach out to parents. Hope that helps.

[Mental Health America @MentalHealthAm]

Healing is a journey, not a destination.

[Mental Health America @MentalHealthAm]

Don’t forget to take care of YOUR mental health. Remember: You can’t be everything for everyone.

[Dr. Nicole LePera @Theholisticpsyc]

Not enough people talk about the burnout from dealing with unhealed people.

[Black Therapist 💕 @NicoleLewisLCSW]

Yall are a little too comfortable being mean and nasty. Everything has consequences.

I do not understand arguing with a professional about an industry you know NOTHING about… that happens way too often.

[Nate Postlethwait @nate_postlethwt]

April is child abuse awareness month. What survivors hear:

"You're stronger now because of the abuse."

"I bet your abusers were abused too."

"Now you can help others who were abused."

What they need to hear:

"That was not supposed to happen. Are you ok?"

[AntionetteTheGirlNextDoor @DrToniSaidit]

Becoming a licensed therapist is great but REMAINING a licensed mental health professional is honorable. Working with people’s mental health while staying up to date with interventions, laws, and ethics is not easy.

[𝐍𝐲𝐬𝐬𝐚🩺 @PsychedRN]

If your child is in or needs therapy— you need therapy.

[Black Therapist 💕 @NicoleLewisLCSW]

If more people had healthy support systems there would be a significant decrease in the amount of relationships they’re in.
