Wow, thanks

Your Dad is an Alcoholic, your mother is codependet or/and has a full blown mental issue herself, they are verbally putting you down and then deny it ever happening - a common tactic of emotional abuse in dysfunctional families, leaving me certain even from your short description that your family is, indeed, dysfunctional. Families of alcoholics are prime textbook examples for such damaged family systems.

Read up (google) on dysfunctional families, their common patterns and the roles the children can fulfill in these families - you'll almost certainly identify with one of them.

There is no way to make your parents come to sensical conclusions. There is no way to *really* help them and fix your family. If you feel obliged to "help" them, as many children do in such circumstances, stop feeling like that. They'll deny that anything is wrong with them. It will accomplish nothing except hurting you more. Fixing them is beyond your power.

Here is my advice: GTFO. Build your own social network of functional human beings. You have an amazing partner, so you've got at least some things going for you.

Learn about the patterns. Learn how it hurts you, learn to fend off damage. Don't let it get to you. Decide to be healthy instead.

Godspeed, Anon.
