Hi ya all!
I'm having a crummy Sunday. So many things are eating at me.
Let alone the ending of my long-term relationship, my relationship with my mother is one that is about to drive me mad. Obviously quite a bit of my therapy is devoted to the fact that there aren't appropriate boundaries there. I've carried alot of my mother's pain over the years and been her support through so much. She's leaned on me when most of the time she should have been sheltering me and protecting me from HER stuff.
Right now she knows VERY little about what I'm going through but from the little bit she's heard she is acting like she KNOWS. I got a card in the mail yesterday and she's all offering her support but instead of it being bitter sweet to me, it annoys me. I don't accept her support or welcome it. I don't know why this is, but her doing this just annoys me.
All this following me approaching her with the fact that she had no right to tell anyone about the status of my relationship (which she barely knows what the status is) - but she has and when I approached her it made her mad. She's never apologized, and her "card" implies it's because of everything I'm going through and she's praying for me. WTH
Anyway, I know this is a random post, sorry! Just trying to get some things out and they are so hard for me verbalize.
Can anyone relate, if you can I imagine it would help me! Thanks!

Hi. I know next to nothing of your situation, but I just wanted to let you know there are people out here that wish you the best. Remember, there are a lot of emotionally unhealthy people in the world, and a lot of them are parents. Looks like you found one!!!
Good luck.
