The first 3 are texts to my attorney. I hate to say this about my own father, but unfortunately every word of it is true. He's kind, generous, compassionate, and ethical UNLESS it has to do with me or my mom & nobody is watching him. Then my dad literally throws temper tantrums. https://t.co/nKCzONVQgr — PolitiTweet.org

It took me many many attempts to understand why they treat me like such total shit, compared to my brothers. It explains so much, to finally understand: It's NOTHING I did, it's NOT my fault. They have hated me since long before I had any ability to earn their hatred myself. https://t.co/TNXSbdHfyz — PolitiTweet.org

After LOTS of therapy, I understand that my parents simply resent that I was born. They wanted a 2nd kid but got 3 (I'm a twin). They never wanted me. I was the 1 of the 2 who cried as a baby all the time…They've hated me since before I could talk I DON'T deserve this bullshit https://t.co/016hhOyxyQ — PolitiTweet.org

@Michell33650674 I stopped dating last summer at age 38 (I'm 39 on the 23rd). My mental & physical health are a disaster. I'm not healthy enough to be a good partner to anyone; i might never be. I have a LOT of work to do on myself before I can even be a good friend, let alone a good partner. — PolitiTweet.org

@Obiang1Grace @Rosemary3141 I don't have any fake accounts, Rosemary. I post under my real, full, verified name. I have nothing to hide. YOU are hiding behind a pseudonym, defending a child abuser! I'm getting really tired of this. So he did his job as a doctor for you, okay. He's still an abuser at home! — PolitiTweet.org

If I still talked to my dad, I'd link him to this. Just came out, fits him to a T The surprising reason some people always blame others is a lack of ability to regulate their emotions, especially negative emotions like anger. That's my dad, yup. https://t.co/5zjQCD0pUU — PolitiTweet.org

@Obiang1Grace Whoa, did you hear what my mom said?! "The kids were throwing up on the rug, because I didn't pick them up instantly"--She's referring to their CONSCIOUS CHOICE TO IGNORE MY CRYING in my crib every night for months, until I vomited, and THEN they would come & clean me up JUST WOW — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@Obiang1Grace thank you <3 — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@Obiang1Grace Thank you for your kind words. You are so much more compassionate to me than my parents have ever been, it's kind of breaking my heart that I don't even know you, you're just a mother yourself and you have more compassion for me than my own parents. Thank you, it means a lot. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@Obiang1Grace They told me later they should've handled that differently. But they didn't apologize or anything. They made the excuse that they were exhausted from working so much, and that they didn't know what else to do. What else to do?! Get the hell up & take care of your crying baby!! — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@Obiang1Grace Yes, I'm certain he only said I love you, for the second time of my entire life, because he knew he was guilty of attacking me. Later, after I went to the cops, he claimed he injured me to protect Andy from me about to punch him. TOTAL bullshit. Like I'd ever try to punch a COP! — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@Obiang1Grace They got so sick of my crying every night, they decided to stop coming to put me back down. They just let me cry until I vomited. Thereafter they ONLY came when I vomited. This went on every night-crying until I vomited-for MONTHS. I have anxious attachment issues because of this — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@Obiang1Grace I actually know the answer to that. When I was a baby, I figured out how to pull myself up standing in my crib, but I couldn't get back down again. I would cry for my mom, wake up my parents, wake up my brothers, my twin in his crib too. They told me years later: — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@Obiang1Grace My dad never hugged me, ever. He was never affectionate with me at all, never in my memory. He said I love you to me, twice, ever. Once when I was 8 and I was clinically depressed; the other time, my second night here in this hotel via text last November: https://t.co/qhFlNn8gVX — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@Obiang1Grace Yes, he's a sadist. I stopped trying to figure out why he hates me so much. I've just accepted that he desires that I suffer. I stopped asking myself what I ever did to deserve such hatred from him. Rather I've accepted that I don't deserve it. I truly don't know why he hates me. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@Obiang1Grace business, that he was 5% owner of, my dad "invested" $1.7m to start a company renting DJ equipment. I called it "delusionally optimistic" but I'm not wrong, they only lasted a couple of years. My brother started driving a BMW at age 20 from his salary at that job, paid by my dad. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@Obiang1Grace Jeff and I used to go play pool and go out to eat sometimes, but I wouldn't say we were close, really. We never ever hugged or said I love you, ever in our lives. He's not talking to me now because I spilled the beans that our parents paid for his house, and I called his previous — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@Obiang1Grace He had a HORRIBLE experience, he had so much anxiety & abandonment trauma, he developed trichotillomania, & plucked out all of his eyebrows one by one. It was so sad. He learned how to steal & smoke there, at age 13. They pulled him out after 1 year. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@Obiang1Grace Jeff & I got along better than my twin brother and I, for sure. We both played guitar. Jeff had a ton of behavior issues as a kid, which was really undiagnosed autism. They sent him away to this boarding school in Connecticut for a year for $75k: https://t.co/4emPyyBVhX — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@Obiang1Grace Yes, Andy's the cop, my twin. He's always been a bully toward me, he harassed me & mocked me often. He was physically violent with me multiple times. Once he hit me so hard, with the back of his forearm while I was lying down, that he broke his own arm! I didn't even touch him. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@Obiang1Grace My parents aren't callous to my siblings. Like I said, my dad bought each of them houses. My parents take them out to fancy expensive dinners on their birthdays, they buy them plenty of expensive Christmas presents. My parents didn't even say happy birthday to me last year. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@Obiang1Grace Andy believed it was his job to be my parents' eyes & ears. He routinely kept written notes of my behavior, to report my activities to my parents, anything he could find to get me in trouble. It was absurd. Looking back, it's no surprise he became a cop. He's always hated me. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@Obiang1Grace They didn't want 3 kids. They had my older brother Jeff on purpose, then 3 years later, had a second kid on purpose, but ended up w/twins. I was left-handed, artistic, musical, a fiction writer. My twin Andy always followed all the rules, a proud tattletale, we were never close. — PolitiTweet.org
