Complete transcript: Understanding the parentified daughter experience

Child: I'm the oldest parentified daughter. I'm mature for my age and belive that it's my role to please everyone around me.

Parent: What does that mean?

Chid: It means that I've had to become a parent to my own parent. You know you and dad don't really get along, and there's lots of issues around here. And it; 's my role to manage everyone's anxiety and problems. Of course, no one really notices my anxiety because I've just learned to dissociate from it all. But, that's okay I won't have many childhood memories anyway.

Parent: But you seem like you have it all together.

Child: haha, oh that's a front. I'm just quiet and don't act like much bothers me, but really I'm confused inside. And I'm starting to deal with depression. And fantasize about leaving this home more often than not. In a few years, I'll be searching for love in all the wrong places, but I'll hide most of that too.
Because my emotions don't matter to my parents. Why would they matter to my future partners?
