    The issue is not him. The issue is why you feel responsible. Why you feel you must sacrifice your health and happiness just to make him feel important.

    Which is what you are doing.

    How long do you see it will be before they will be able to cope without you Gemm? 2 years, 5 years, 10 years? When do you start having your life?

    You don't have either because you have sacrificed them. Just as a question to ponder - how many of your ailments are stress related?

    You can make a life for yourself outside of unreasonable demands, destructive selfishness and emotional blackmail.

    But that has to be a choice that you actively make. No one can force that choice on you or anyone else and you will have to fight against a life-time of being convinced you have no choices and no escape.

    Don't get caught. And make sure you look the other way when your dog "whips his mic"...
