AP financial and religious truama

my APs didnt know how to manage finances at an early age and never got help for it. we were always struggling and this continued into college where I relifed on FAFSA and sacrified going to a CC for two years just to save money. anything with college savings triggers the F out of me.

I cannot relate to Asian Americans who had financially stable homes. my APs were extremely religious too and when I was younger wanted me to go to church 2-3 times a week. i have blocked out memories of abusive adults at church- yelling or controlling and then abusive peers who were similar to APs.
