Had a recent experience that is making me think deeply about the "victim" archetype

I've come to realise it's something I've been having to deal with my whole life, with someone very close to me

It makes it so hard, as you are blamed for their emotions, all of which come from the stance "this is happening to me"

When you're worried about how they feel the whole time, you do not really know where you stand, and you self-censor

Tough one to navigate
