My mom was a serious drinker until I was about twelve years old. I learned to take care of my brother, do everything on my own. I've met with a therapist, and she told me I became something like a parentified child or something. I grew extremely independent from my mother, as anyone could expect, and now, four years later, my mom's sober, and I thought everything would work out. But now, I find myself looking from the outside in, like everyone else has it figured out and knows what to do. They know how to feel, and I'm stuck here on the sidelines, feeling like everything is just an act. I don't feel "love" or anything like that. My friends all talk about their crushes or whatever, and I've never felt that, just like an obligation to fit in.
I don't know what to do. I don't know if I should get a therapist, or if I should talk to someone about it, but no one gets it when I say I'm emotionally unavailable. Is this Depersonalization Disorder, or am I making all this up?
