The Truth About Being The Black Sheep

Those who consider themselves the black sheep of their family can often feel alienated. But they have a gift they don't often realize.

[@asiaparks7158]

I'm the black sheep of my family and I've resently ended the cycle of abuse I'm moving on I pray for them every night it's just me and jesus christ my bestfriend

[@lindamortimore-bc6zs]

Thank u I am my bro and his wife take care of my children because I am dying and now they boss me around I barley see my babies they treat mi like crap and so does my mother

[@kikionthetrailoflove7036]

I am the black sheep of my family, I'm also a replacement child. I don't follow the narrative of my family. I'm 48 years old and have very limited contact with my family, I am free of the toxicity I endured for years. Always portrayed as the weird loner by my family.

[@nailazion2600]

I'm the Black Sheep in a narcissistic family.... I have learned to be proud of it... I realize they hate me because I stand up for myself against our narcissistic mom....they act like she was God...deep on their heart they know she didn't care for them either....they just target me... because it's easier than facing the TRUTH... thanks for the video

[@spetsnaz4027]

So was I…

[@Duskbluesky]

Exactly same here, I would stand up to my abusive dad and everyone turned on me from the day I started.

[@swaykeepgoing]

Im in the same position. Mother, Father and my sister. It’s going to be a great story to tell later in life.

[@trinity40]

I feel the same , for the longest time I accepted all the criticism and blame which came my way but only now do I realise that my family has always put me down even at my lowest point. They have always hated seeing me happy and joyful and find reasons to pull me down. My brother has always made everything about him , it’s always how they feel and not me ever. Slowly disconnecting from this family and moving onto greater things , a world where only care and kindness and joy exists.

[@Layla-fr7mf]

Excellent analysis and story of my life. Emotional and psychological needs never fulfilled, never heard in the family and always outcasted and criticised like an embarrassment despite being highly ambitious and achieving my goals. When bringing it up to the family I am considered “spoiled” and “lucky” that physical needs like food, water and shelter were met as a child. As soon as I left for college to the other side of the world I started to be free in every way which was soothing to my soul. You need to leave the sick people to heal their sickness on their own not blame it on you to feel better about themselves and see you as the sick patient when you are actually the most sane.

[@SpiffyHeart-vc8kb]

Yes!! Same here…..”Be lucky you had a roof and food!” So I REALLY was a different to my only child! Didn’t make the same mistakes….love him unconditionally!

Hope you are good now

[@georgianagheorghe8848]

In reality and in most cases, the black sheep is always someone who thinks differently than the herd, is unique, a genius, is creative and intelligent. Foolishness has always been part of the flock who is thirsty for lies and illusions, even it means destroying itself in the process.

[@jayg.2419]

I feel like you explained my whole life in this video! As a child, I was a night owl, introvert and nyctophile (one who loves night or darkness) and, as everyone else slept, I would sit awake looking out at the night sky wishing I could escape my abusive family. I was called stupid, weird and worse. My mom said I didn’t have a childhood. My dad said I would amount to nothing in adulthood. I eventually moved away from them to a state where I have no known relatives and it’s been wonderful for over 20 years now. I’m a proud, thriving Black Sheep that has traveled the world, pursued higher education and worked out my traumas in therapy. Thank you for this video. I hope that more of us will see this and realize how truly special we are 🖤🐑❤️

[@harryheath9928]

I'm a black sheep for real

[@spetsnaz4027]

So am I. I despise my family now. I fantasize about murdering them daily

[@JennieJohansson-vj5ks]

If you asked my dad and my stepmom I couldnt clean, wash the dishes, eat right, change my chlothes, shower or bath (i dont do this cuz i feel uncomfortable with it) , take care of my hair (i tried to tell them that my hair type is a rare kind and they laughed and said youre lying i have gave birth to 3 girls teemagers and they dont have any trouble witg their hair and for the last you just need to brush it or take a scissor and let the scissor do it main purpose (trust me i have tried this shit for solid 5 y AND IT NEVER WORKED!!! or body, i couldnt have friends cuz i just hanged out with them for a short time (i habe problems with having friends which they called autism - i got the diagnose mad 5 months later i looken it up and of 20 things i only related to like 3-5 stuff and when i asked my aunts they said "she doesnt have it" nad then i got the diagnose low smartness (its that you have the iq in the range of 80- 90 BUT this is a normal type of iq range to have during the teenager years, and if i had this range of iq i would never have contribute to get higher grader which i got after i moved out from them to my mom

[@bethmcbride6680]

Many times my husband has said "the stork" brought me to my parents. I don't let my family treat me like the black sheep anymore. Have gone no contact. Took many years to come to this conclusion.

[@Laura-tp8wz]

Proud to be a BLACK SHEEP!!!!

[@scottsanddollar]

Being the black sheep = Being a lone wolf! Just rember that you are not living other peoples lives........you are living your own. As soon as you stop caring what other people think or say (within resone) you will have won the fight! The struggle is REAL!

[@tracynewton3083]

[@MistakenEnt]

As a 36 year old woman who just doesnt want children because I am the black sheep of my family , of the whole family (dads side which is the narcissistic side), after all of the pain they put me through... so now I'm a PROUD fur mama and rescue animals ... THIS really hit my soul. Thank you....really....God Bless You for making this....did you write this? If so..you must have experienced the pain as well? I'm so sorry. I think black sheep people need to stick together. If we dont, we may not be able to cope with being alone. 💔

[@insideout277]

I am a black sheep male 47 no children. Lol. If I found you and we fell in love and let say made 3 children. Two of them were like us but the last one was black sheep. Then what? I relate to what you wrote and I guess been put through pain as well but I don’t think of it like its there’s fault . Both side learning from each other. But of course I don’t know why you feel like you feel in yours situation. It’s a reason behind everything. To be separated from society and being alone creates anxiety so in my case to create a family it’s difficult and scares me because i failed to do what the community expect from me. To be parents is to give the children the opportunity for them to be whoever they want to be also a normal member of the society. In that context I am grateful to my family and what they have achieved despite the differences and opposite of me. I just wish the society was more advanced and not fake and not working against the nature and the spirit.

thank you I want to leave my abusive family I went through physical mental and sexual abuse through them I always knew there was something off about these people and this video kind of confirmed my suspicions when you talked about how we are usually the ones who can see the truth that there is something seriously wrong with these people it's TRUE I knew it the entire time no matter how hard they tried to manipulate me

[@Micbop]

Cool, thank you for those positive, I was in a narcissistic home I was the scapegoat child (The Black Sheep) I only now understand just how accurate psychological profiling is. I was the odd one of 2500 forced conscript soldiers who refused to take up a weapon as a Religious objector in the South African Army. I was the one who was sexually, mentally, physically abused by there own family. I saw how people were treated unfairly, I was the odd white person in the marching against apartheid as a teen. I was the one going into the black townships staying over at my friends houses, which I didn't even know I was not allowed to go there. I was the one who had more friends of colour than white friends and I identified with them, I was not friends with them because they had a different colour than me but because they accepted me for who I was. You so right we need more black sheep in this world people who don't let fashion, media, capitalism shape who they are and yes its easy for me to be alone.

[@marshapicardo7322]

This resonates with me so much. When I was around 12 y.o. a cousin of mine that was just slightly older than me said I was the BLACK SHEEP of my family. He said this after staying with us (my family) for just a few months. I took that as a bad thing & didn't know why he would call me that bad thing. Then as I got older (now almost 49) I realized that it was actually a good thing. As I see how people & this world are. I feel I'm not as blind or disillusioned as some people are.

[@jcut910]

I woke up this morning and just felt something in me to look this up. I was recently on vacation with my toxic family. We met up with a photographer and she mentioned something to me when we stepped aside saying are you the black sheep in the family. I said sure jokingly but she persisted and said it again differently phrased. It was coming from a tone of love, and sincerity. Like i didnt know what she meant but it was good intended. This video has tremendously helped on a level i cannot explain thank you

[@smoozerish]

It's funny how I ended being the black sheep and truth teller of my family. I'm the oldest of six children, physically the biggest, the brightest, the fastest, the most athletic, the most articulate, the most empathic, the only non-alcoholic sibling, the most sensible, the most hardworking, the most restrained, the most studious. the most spiritual...etc etc.....the furthest sibling from being the actual runt. But because my mother saw me as threat to her own narcissistic world view she brainwashed my whole family to hate and despise me. She always said i was too sensitive and she hated that character trait because sensitivity to other human beings was something she rejected in herself a long time ago, probably in her own childhood. It took me a long time to heal and realise that I was not warped or a bad person. I was in fact the opposite. A shining light in a dark family.

And only just seeing my family only at Xmas or family event but 2 years ago now at Xmas I was talking at the table with my cousins and aunties about my side business I started and before I could tell them how much money I was making they all turned away and started talking to each other and ignored me just like always so from that day I gave up and said to my self what am I doing why am I hanging around these people so last Xmas I didn't see them and all family events like wedding I will not be attending... and I am more successful then any or my other family members so maybe I should thank them for kicking me out of the box
