You are not alone. The Great Awakening has elements that are really hard and not great at all. I have lost 99% of my friends probably forever and at least 2/3 of my family either because they only see me as a "Trumper" or a conspiracy theorist or an antivaxer.
Most of these folks I dont really miss, I see how toxic and shallow they are and cant believe I never saw it before and my life is better with them out of it. There are a few others I truly miss. I made a decision to mend these bridges starting Jan 1 this year. Not by reaching out in person or by apologizing for my views but just sending a "thinking of you" card and birthday cards with a few friendly updates about the kids or activities. I will continue to do this, tho none have reached back to me I feel better keeping the door open. These are people I know will wake up as soon as the truth comes out. Hang in there. Praying for you and all of us who have been hurt by people who dont know any better.
Sorry to hear you’ve split with your family. We are here to be your second family. I’m so glad I found this forum, don’t know where I’d be right now as far as my sanity, if not for this amazing group here.
I pray peace over you. It’s not easy when you lose family members over disagreements. I can’t communicate with any of my siblings like we used to. One sibling cut me completely off because I won’t take the jab. I still make attempts to reach out to the others & have “ acquaintance” conversations with them. I’m gonna keep praying that God will reveal truth to them.
Do not give others control and recognize that we cannot use them as an the excuse to justify our own behavior. Do what Rainspa suggests - it is hella good advice.
If you are here, you have a purpose much bigger and grander than passing out and maybe not waking up. I'm grateful that you have reached out, and now in return please take some outreach right back and layoff the booze.. theres no escaping in oblivion since thats a path right back to where you really dont want to be.
Drinking sucks, I don't know why I do it either. Now I'm hungover as shit at work in an office where the building A/C is out. I'm miserable right now not gonna lie.
Fren you can ill-afford to have your dangerous habits make you lose your father. You'd better choose life, today, because you are skirting on the edge of no return.
I'm sorry. I wish there was something I could do for you beyond words on a screen. I will say a prayer that the situation between you and your family is somehow mended. As long as we are living, there is still a chance. Much love.🙏❤
I can honestly say that this community has saved my immediate family’s lives. Both physically and spiritually. I, too, burned a bridge with my brother over this. It was a long time coming. While he wallows in anger, alcoholism and loneliness, I am enjoying happiness, sobriety and love. Sure, it hurts sometimes, but I have established my boundaries with him that he has continuously ignored and abused. Boundaries come from a mature place of power. My want for him to change his behavior towards me was nothing but a pipe dream. But he understood the risks of noncompliance and he made his choices. My freedom from his toxicity is wonderful.
Edit: reading your responses below, I see you are drinking today. I get it. Our community needs each of us to be the best they can be for what’s coming up. The storm is upon us, Fren. Maybe tomorrow, July 6, 2022, will be the first day of the rest of your life, encompassing sobriety and spiritual growth. All it will take is a decision on your part. Take care.
Hang in there, fren. The bridge may be burnt, but that's not to say that in the future it can't be rebuilt with a little effort. Not everyone wakes up gently. Some prefer to roll over and go back to sleep.
The day will come when the avalanche of data is released and eyes are opened. It will become impossible to ignore the facts any longer.
Give it some time, fren, and take a deep breath. Everything will work out in the end.
This issue is related to alcohol abuse and how it destroys families. Seen it, experienced another's denial, and yet they continued drinking themselves into organ failure and death. Fren, you are creating your own nightmare which will never end until you stop what you are doing. The jig is up. You can repair this rift with your father. But it's up to you. Alcohol destroyed people I loved most.
Hopefully they will wake up soon. The deep state relishes when we are divided. We need to be above that, especially when it comes to family. I have the same issue with my wife and daughter, they are so programed and woke from MSM. So I try not to bring up anything that is really going on. Waiting for that Storm so they will finally understand.
Totally understand. Sometimes it’s best to step back from truth telling and let the brainwashed stay in their own little world. I’ve had to learn this with my family. Im confident everything will work out in the end and relationships will be resorted.
When I was a kid I wanted to study Fire Science. You know all the science of fire. So I went to a big school in florida to learn it, I ended up quitting on day one when I learned fire Science meant fireman. I think fuck, those guys put fires OUT. So I quit.
Move on from this and do not be stuck playing the recording loop over and over again. You cannot change what has been done, and there is little control of what happens in the future because it is an unknown. We only can exist in the moment - right here, right now. Unfortunately many either obsess over the future, or they spend their life looking in the rear view mirror saying could of, would of, should of. Don't do that to yourself. Take care of yourself first at this moment so you will be better able to deal with what does come. You are the only one that can change your situation. Therefore, don't be in the trap of using situations or people to give yourself permission to do yourself harm. Give it time, take back your control, and be kind to yourself. Good luck fren. We will be pulling for you.

We're all family in The Great Awakening.

Honestly that bridge burnt left me in tears.and I'm still broken
I love yall
It will be repaired in time. The masses will be woken up. I'm waiting for that time too.
Sorry to hear you’ve split with your family. We are here to be your second family. I’m so glad I found this forum, don’t know where I’d be right now as far as my sanity, if not for this amazing group here.
Yes!
All frens are family, fren. <3

Thank you
It was my father and I NEED him in my life but....it is what it is
Truly sorry that happened.
Thank you, it's been a terrible morning I'm drinking and there's a chance it'll lead to being hospitalized for pancreatitis...again
Well if we are family, just think of me as a well-meaning older relative.
Put that bottle down right now and go to an AA meeting. You are not allowed to self-destruct; you're needed on the front lines.
Did you hear me?
Do it.
Do it now.
And go take a shower and have something to eat, there's a good boy.

Well then at least make sure its a GOOD choice and a quality drink!!!!
Not that rotgut stuff...

I will join in!
Likewise brother. Sorry you have to go through this with your family but we are here for you.

I believe a lot of us have burnt bridges unfortunately.
I've burnt most all of mine, or so it seemed. Ironically after this happened - that relationship is stronger now that it has been in a long time
They ended up being the one person who was there for me as I lost everything, and helped pull me back up
And some bridges burnt just means those who don't have my best interests at heart can no longer cross over to me.
Same here. I trust God and follow Him.
Come to my house for Thanksgiving, fren!! I mean, bro or sis!
I feel this place is extended family, when it gets tough to deal with, which it does, coming on here I know there are more than enough of us!

Welcome to the club my friend.
What is family? Hard to tell anymore. Still got my bro, past that.....

You're making me want to read Fahrenheit 451 again🐸
Bridges can always be rebuilt. Its hard at first, but blood is truly thicker than water and time heals all wounds.
