Abusive parents kicked me out at 18, still withholding my personal things three years later.
Soo yeah pretty much the title. what I specifically wanna rant about is a situation with one of my sets of grandparents. it doesn't really matter which parent they belong to.
these grandparents reached out to me when I was kicked out three years ago, seemingly offering help. what the help ended up being was them berating me over the phone that I'm being too "stuck in the past" by talking about how I've been abused and started shouting that what I should be worried about money and how I'm going to survive on my own.And as any reasonable person in my situation would be, I was already worried about both being abused and surviving the rest of my life completely alone. I was obviously hysterical over the phone, which didn't seem to deter my grandparents.
So now, three years later. My parents still follow me on this one social media, so I occasionally post melodramatic vague posts about being devastated. This is when my grandparents reach out again saying my posts "make them feel sad" and they're wondering if they can do anything to help. the offer of "help" three years after I've been kicked out was laughable if not infuriating. nevertheless I accept, and tell them there is something they could do for me. I tell them about my parents withholding my things from me. I tell them how much I would appreciate it if somebody, anybody would advocate for me. they leave me on read for a week, and say they'll definitely do this for me. the next month they let me know they asked my parent a week ago about the items, but they haven't heard back. they tell me they don't really hear from them much anymore anyway, so hopefully they'll just directly contact me.
this leads into the screenshots I'm gonna provide. a little context for the first screenshot, they leave me on read for a day and then gave my message a thumbs up which made me upset idk, so I sent a thumbs up back. any thoughts are appreciated, idk they make me feel so insane.
