Co-dependent Social Media Communities and the Damage they Cause

 

'Hello, please hide ID in Timbuktu. My husband made me angry so I am now being eaten by four men outside. The driver, the gardener, the workmate na mtu wa gym. Hata niko na mimba na sijui ni ya nani,"

"Do you mama, kaende kaende...kaende sana,"

"Awesome, next time do with the donkey and the village chief! Liberation hoye!!"

....

20 years later on a therapist's couch.

...

"My mother was a narcissist. I don't even know who my real father is. Mother was kicked out by my father when I was five and used to beat us like brukenges, I guess ni machungu. She brought different men home and some even tried to rape me,"

What am I saying?

Any conversation that is not giving you a sensible solution on this app, but is enabling your bad behavior is a community embroiled in co-dependency.

And yes, you are booking therapy sessions for your children as you do those things whether as a man or a woman.

One day they will see a text, hear a phone call or see an argument about the infidelity, and their world will crumble. Low self esteem will start there. They will run away.

Maybe you will even know they know and narcissistically threaten them that if they speak they will be wrecking your home. (That you have refused to dissolve despite being unhappy there, again-co-dependency).

So, confront the your issues right now, following the right channels. Your children don't need to spend their adulthood in therapy for having you as a parent.
