My parents have told me they are proud of me, but I have a hard time believing it, because I have not achieved my dreams yet, and I have this high standard I hold myself to.
My parents tell me they are proud of me, and they act like it too, they say and do supportive things all the time…I know my parents love me a lot, no doubt about it.
But I know my mom is disappointed she doesn’t have grandchildren.
I think I am more disappointed in myself than my parents are. I went from being at one of the top Universities in the country to being mostly a failure. I just tell myself it’s not my fault I developed schizophrenia and that the meds they put me on knocked me on my ass.
They were probably more proud of me pre sz when I was working 2 jobs and had a house. Now, I live with them. But I don’t know. I never asked and they never say.
Yes when I was working, they were proud, and now when I sit at home, I doubt.
Its only because I worked then and not now, all are disappointed.
I need to get things done.
They are all, I have got.
And for me I need to prove them, I was worth the short.
Dont think my mothers too proud. But considering ive got a severe MI - i reckon i do bloody well in managing my flat and finances. And its me some people with an MI come to for support and advice. I know normal people older than me that cant even budget or run a property.
I doubt my parents are proud of me. I’m 26, unemployed, dont have a girlfriend. Still live with my mom. Rarely get out of the house. I’m probably a loser in their eyes.
My parents are dead, but while they were alive they couldn’t have been proud of me. They did support me with no complaints, though. My mother was adamant that I go into assisted living, which has worked out well for me.
My dad’s not proud of me. He’s always seen me as a failure (because of trauma he gave me by being extremely abusive towards me). Good thing he’s no longer in my life and never will be again.
My mom’s proud of me just for surviving; she couldn’t care less about whether I achieve conventional success or not, and I appreciate that.
My father I don’t think is proud of me, but I don’t care about his opinion about me anyway hes a scumbag
mother… hmmm… she has always had kinda high expectations of me and wanted me to become a doctor (which I wanted too) so she’s probably disappointed that im not well enough for that but it is probably not me she’s disappointed with but more with my situation
I came from poor stock but lots of love and encouragment. So not much of the finer things but plenty of love and support. Getting sick wasn’t my fault and they were pretty good to me. Had little but bankrolled a failed trip overseas. I don’t even think in those terms…we don’t really judge anyone by any standards in our family other than being a good human being…so in those terms you’ve got to be proud of everyone!
My mom talks to me like I’m 5. Even though I have a college degree she treats me like I’m incapable of understanding anything other than toddler talk. So no, I don’t think she’s proud of me.
