I feel you on that, I came from a family of toxic alcoholic narcissists. And no I don't throw that word around lightly. True narcissists are something else than just plain toxic. There is really something wrong with them like they don't have empathy at all or something. Really baffling people!
Anyways I have had to cut off some family, including my deadbeat dad, because the toxic passive-aggressive shit (or just plain overt aggression,) gets emotionally exhausting!
My childhood was extremely neglectful in many ways. Best I could figure out is that some people are like cancer, cut em out, heal, work on yourself and never look back.
Some people will ALWAYS be a net gain of harm instead of good. Cut them out.
You did the right thing, and I know it was a difficult step.
Hating is often the first step to forgiveness. Forgiveness is the first step on the path to understanding love thy enemy.
This is one of the most potent things you can do for yourself and it indeed opened up my third eye or something. Once I got shown the "black & white jail," I knew that forgiveness of that which we hate is the key out!
Good luck, KKLoco and KTemplar.
