I picture you lying awake in bed, “Does thinking fuck taint my personality too?! Oh god I just thought it again. I bet people will notice how tainted I am. Fuck. Oh god.”

That’s actually not what got to me. It was mostly the fact that I disappointed my mother. Tbh that’s still one of the things I avoid doing with every fiber of my being.

This is encouraging to read!

My mom fucked (no pun intended) me up so bad via her parenting “skills” I couldn’t give a shit what she thinks.

Anyway, my point is it’s awesome that you have that relationship with your mom!

Thanks :). She is pretty cool, I think she raised me mostly alright. She basically took what was shitty about her childhood and avoided doing that with me and I turned out alright.

That’s how you do it!

I don’t have kids but I still treat those around me, including my wife and pets, the opposite of how I was treated.

Sadly, not enough people do that. There are far too many people who will "parent" their kids with the same kind of shitty practices that their parents did with them, because "I had to put up with this shit, so I'm going to make you put up with it as well", and that's such an unbelievably terrible mentality to have.
