If you were scapegoated in your family, you likely learned to doubt your own perception.
You were blamed for things that weren’t your fault. Treated as the problem — while everyone else avoided their own pain.
You may have been called “too sensitive,” “reactive,” or even “crazy” when you named what you saw.
Over time, it can lead to deep self-blame, people-pleasing, or struggling to set boundaries. You may feel like you don’t belong, even in your own family of origin.
And none of that is because something was wrong with you. It’s what happens when a child is made to carry what a system refuses to hold.
You are not too much. You were never the problem.
Healing means coming back to the truth of who you are — not who the family made you out to be.
