P, I just posted on your new thread. Keep trying!!! I read my last post and I it made me sad and it made me put things into prospective about my family. There are some real big issues there. Things that some of my family say to each other wouldn’t be tolerated if a stranger was saying them. I don’t have to tolerate that bad behavior as I am a adult now, not a child. My Mother has a uncontrollable temper and has fits of rage. I will walk away from here when she acts inappropriately She will not change. Everything is someone else’s fault with her as with my Sister. I think it is the easy way out in not accepting being at fault. Very unhealthy. I mourn what I won’t have: a healthy relationship with my Mother and Sister. I can sit and cry and keep having my pity parties or I can do something about it. I am determined to live a healthy life. I will have superficial relationships with them but I will have my boundaries up. I am lucky to have good friends and my daughters and grandson. I feel blessed!
