@catherine_thegrace: What I wish I knew when I was still enmeshed with my mom: Her feelings are her responsibility. Not mine. I used to twist myself into a pretzel trying to say everything the “right” way so she wouldn’t get upset. It never worked. It just left me exhausted. It’s okay if she feels hurt. It’s okay if she throws a fit. That doesn’t mean I have to abandon my peace. You’re allowed to stay grounded. Ready to start disentangling? Join the Re-Mothering Circle starting September 15th.

I’ve always been so emotionally enmeshed with my mom and I never really realized until I got older. Back in March, my stepfather took his own life. From that point, and for about 2 months, I spent almost everyday with her. Trying to make sure that she was okay, helping her around the house since she now lived alone, and gave her as much emotional support as I could. After some time, I had to resume with the regularly scheduled program that is my life. I started working a new job, tending to my own home and responsibilities again and tried to get my life back on track as well. She asks me to come over on my day off and I tell her no because I was tired and needed rest. She then tells me “I only got two good months out of you after he died and that’s it, that’s all I get.” to say I was mindblown is an understatement. Not counting the 28 years I’ve been here for her, those 2 months is all she saw and I was no good after that. I have been cordial or on speaking terms with her for almost 2 months now.

omg I used to be soo anxious when her energy was off! I used to think it was my responsibility to make things better.

I am 48 years old. Last year I had a heart attack from living like this 24/7. It woke me up. After her last blow up I went no contact.
