***Trigger warning: mentions death and suicide
The brief background is: the OW committed suicide about 5 years ago. She and the ex were living together at the time along with my middle child and her youngest child.
Just found out the OW’s middle child (now over 18yo) overdosed and died over the weekend. Unsure if accidental or intentional, they are leaning toward accidental.
I know it’s irrational, but I blame the NPD ex. Maybe if you hadn’t been in a f’ed up abusive relationship with her she wouldn’t have killed herself. Maybe her kids wouldn’t have been traumatized and using drugs.
And maybe all of that still would have happened, but I guess we will never know.
The young person that died has a baby. And now the trauma continues to cycle through the generations.
It just PISSES ME OFF that they don’t think about the far reaching consequences of their actions.

Sadly, trauma is transgenerational. I carry my own, gifted to me by my mother who was gifted by her step-father.
