it is a difficult thing to learn and practice. i am still working on that, at 31. something in the core of our beings makes us feel the need for support and validation from our mothers/families. as a rational human being, i know that if my mom is not behind me or supportive about something that it doesn't make it the wrong thing to do or make me wrong, but it is a hard feeling to shake.
Exactly. . .my mother still controls a lot more of my life than she should. Her grasp has been lessened over the years, but at the same time she's one of the few people I can talk to. It's a catch-22.
my mom is such a bitch. i can't talk to her anymore. i've had to effectively cut off all communication with my family because she rules them with a fist of iron and their method of dealing with her is appeasement. my husband calls her 'momma hitler'.
I was going through that too not too long ago...I recently moved in with my father (me being only 17) and am so much happier. I don't take her crap anymore. It's not worth it. I do a lot to make her upset, but no matter what anyone else thinks, it helps her to realize what she's doing to you. Fighting for that kinda stuff just isn't worth it. You'll be ok. I hope you feel better :)
