In this way. I am sure I have in other ways but I don't know what to do so I will write here. I know I have the few people who harass me. If they do, I will ignore lol

OK, I will explain.

I have an abusive mother, as most people know. My life has kind of been ruled by by not being able to get over it. I really did eat, sleep and breathe it, whether trying to figure it out, feeling overwhelmed, feeling I could not think for myself, feeling I could not have my own identity but had to be like she etc etc etc

Well, my son starting working with an exact copy of my mother and they are rare.

He never met one before and I came into contact with one, only, prior.

What happened new was that I started getting really strong to my mother. I told her that if she used her "demeaning" voice on me, I would use it back ten times worse.

She asked me what was her "demeaning" voice. I told her to try to use it and she would find out lol

At any rate, she figured it out cuz she has not used it since--about 2 months.

She is very sadistic. This all is hard for me to FEEL. I can say it but I can't feel it, if you know what I mean.

Anyway, my father always stood up for her and tried to make everything OK and basically blame the people who had problems with her, rather than she.

Hence, he made other people feel as if it were their fault.

Well, my father reached critical mass because she did one sadistic thing too many to him and he called her on EVERYTHING for an entire lifetime.

She called me up to try to get me in the middle and I took his side.

I said she was sadistic and I was not going to make it better for her by lying.

He, finally, just stood up and told the truth.

All that may be good but she has a really bad cough and I have the feeling she may die and I feel I abused her when she was sick.

I have HUGE guilt around her. I blame myself for everything.

I don't know. That is what is going on. I am so upset.

Whatever you can be honest about gets you in touch with your deepest self, and in turn opens you up for healing.

So, good job, Ami. I know it's hard.

We fight sometimes, but I mean this.

Family tension is never easy. Since the age of 12, my family has been FAR from what I have wanted it to be. My siblings got angry and moved on with their lives and I was left behind - now we don't really speak to each other. It is pushing 12 years between me and my sister and nearly 1 year between me and my brother.

In as much as I would like a perfect family: 1. I am too old and the dream is dead and 2. I have accepted that other people have their own crosses to bear, and they do what is right for them. In knowing that and understanding that now, you have to do what is right for you and speak your truth. If that means telling your mum that you do not agree with her, then in my opinion, you have done the right thing. I think accepting negative personalities only makes you sadder to be honest (from experience).

I understand that you feel guilty, because you feel like you are losing her; but do you think that you also feel sad because you've never been able to address what she has put you through your entire life? I know that if the day comes and I am reunited with my siblings, the days in which have been apart have helped me to understand what I need to say.


It saddens me that you feel sad, but you are in control of whatever happens next between you and your mum and whatever you do will be the right decision for you (and your peace) xxx

@ikja

I can relate ~ There is bad blood between me and my sister and it feels like...well, it drives at the roots of practically everything I am. Her Cancer sun-moon-Mercury conjunction forms a cardinal grand cross with my sun-Jupiter-Pluto t-square.

And it's always been, "Who do we blame this colossal mess on?" She is schizophrenic, but I could never let myself off the hook and say, "Her problems are her problems." Or stop blaming myself for not being able to fix her, and fix us.

Maybe because my Pisces moon is trine hers.

Anyway...it's been about four years since we stopped talking.

You know, my father took it back. He is sucking up again. I feel a relief that "life is back to normal" This must be bad

Thanks Teasel

I will give an update today. My father went back to being a 100% wimp again. I talked to him on the phone and I asked him, point blank, if it was just too hard for him to stand up after a life of being beaten down. He told me he wanted to think on the question lol

I don't know.

I know this is a bit of an old thread, but I just wanted to say I am sorry you are having a tough time with family Ami, but considering some of the experiences you've recounted on LL, I can only hope that you have remembered that resilience within you, again.

Sometimes all we can do is break the circle. Our parents, including your mother, were children too..and as Louise Hay said, we are victims of victims of victims...trying to alter the past is futile but we can take our lessons and pay forward in a positive way. Ie dont return and don't pass it on. If your mother dies how do you want to remember relating to her? Vulnerability on her part can give you a new perspective. Part of the prob we have with our parents is the power we still give them over our self-esteem...even as adults. Seeing my mother slowly dying put her "poison" in the category of irritation and helped me realize it hur t her more than anyone.

The amazing thing was that once i realized that I also realized she was not poisonous but afraid/anxious .. and trying maybe too hard to do the "right" thing. I never had a difficult moment with her after that
