I don’t like my dad. He makes me uncomfortable to be around. He is ND too. He’s been verbally abusing me and my mom and brother since I was born. My mom came into my room to ask something then my dad came in for no reason and just stood in my room and wouldn’t leave

I asked very kindly and calmly “can you get out please?” And my mom got mad at that and said I wasn’t allowed to talk to him like that. Despite the way he talks to us I think asking him to leave is the least bad thing I could have said. I was diagnosed with PTSD when I was 5. I can’t be around the sound of dishes clinking in the sink it makes me really upset and I’ll cry even.

My mom is scared of him too. During his anger blowups she hides in my room. He doesn’t have a job however controls all the finances and my mom has to ask him to spend her own money.

Was this a social cue thing? How could i avoided this?
