I got on really well with my mum but my dad was always a bit of a psycho and a clepto
I blamed my parents for my illness at first. And I was mad at them and rejected them. After many months I realized all they were trying to do was help me and they were on my side. Our relationship got better immediately.

I am in the same boat as @77nick77
I was angry and suspicious and blamed them for all my problems. After a while when my anger left me and I got stable, I could see that they really did try their best for me.
We’ve been working on repairing past damage.
I’d blame friends and self over parents. They’re good folk.

Never met my dad but still not very trusting of my mother. She might be a narcissist who has no interest in changing. She can be such a pill but then she gets nice sometimes. Her boyfriend has really damaged our relationship. I try to pray for her. But its hard to love somebody who has so much hatred and venom for me…i don’t believe that narcissist’s are incapable of love though. I don’t think anyone is incapable of love.

My problems all came from my brain. My parents certainly didn’t help with any of my issues but they also certainly didn’t cause them. I was born funky. (The bad and the good kind 
)
My parents try to take care of me,I take care of myself too…I feel that me and my parent relationship improved but I still don’t really feel loved
My father was rebelious spirit. The only thing i hold against him is that he left me forever.
I’m sure they love you man. They probably just don’t know how to show it. For some being warm with others doesn’t come naturally. I’ve gathered they are business owners… That’s a pretty demanding and stressful thing to have going on.
They probably just want the best for you.
Yes,you are right…they actually showed that they loved me but I am the one unmoved or not having positive reaction…
Yeah I’ve kind of lost sight of love. Forgotten how it feels. Still know it’s there though. Sadly I have to think about death to feel how much I appreciate people. To imagine them not being there, and the hole that would leave, is what lets me know I do care and appreciate them. Reminds me to cherish the time and not be an ■■■■■■■. Still struggle sometimes and want to just ignore and avoid people. Gotta keep it balanced.
Man I hope you will be fine soon,come to this forum and do more positive stuff in life…maybe do less of smoking just like like I need to lessen my gaming

I good for now. It’s tough to expand my activities do to lack of interest and having to deal with people(symptoms).
Smoking keeps me sane and gives me something to look forward to/do. For now it stays. Tried quitting for a while. Know a lot of people who have succeeded. Know I can do it, or at least it’s extremely possible.
All in do time.
I don’t get along with my dad when it comes to my psychosis… my mom is more understanding.
When I was little I loathed my dad. When I grew up I saw a good side to him, though. He was just a victim to an illness he couldn’t overcome.
My mother was cold and my father was physically, emotionally and psychologically abusive.
It’s not too bad only means I don’t like physical contact, it feels uncomfortable, and sexual partners I have had get angry about it.
It’s weird because my parents sort of became ‘normal’ when I was 15… as if it makes up for our childhood to start giving a ■■■■ later. When I was first ill as a teenager my dad would drive me to the psychiatrist though. We have an okay relationship nowadays (I’m 23). I would say it was walking on eggshells. But I think it is just that they do not know how to approach me.
