Bittersweet


I guess I'm still in shock over the way my mother has acted towards...  since my accident Tuesday, she hasn't called to check on me once.  All I have done for her, I have done out of love, it just feels like she doesn't love me.  If she cannot manipulate me ~ &/or get her way, she is "disappointed" in me.


She sd in January, "our relationship is s**t & u think it is great" ~ uhh, heh, okay


I hope she is having a great time w/ her husband & b/f, it looks to me she has "sold out."  She blames me for it too, cuz of the money but she has taken away jobs from me & is not acting like she cares one bit. 


She is not even an alcoholic!    


Hopefully, I'll get some good news about my car tomorrow.  Ironic thing is, it didn't even occur to me unitl yesterday, but there is an old jeep sitting in the garage, had I been "licking her emotional wounds" I'd have a vehicle in the meantime.


I am certainly not going to ask, just one more thing to "lord" over me     so I'm still icing my arm, gently rubbing bruises, trying to rest & sleep a lot.


Forgive the bittersweet post, I'm vascilating between real depression & completel anger & disgust.


Hope everyone is doing well, too, taking great care of themselves & hanging in.


Love, -Kitty of Light

If it helps all.  I care about you and I hope you are doing ok.  I am glad when I see your posts.  Even when they are sad.  I feel we have much in common.  I also "war" with my mother and I really understand when you speak about your mother issues.  I wish I could come and check up on you and let you know that you are loved.  You are a wonderful person and you deserve all the happiness that life has to offer.  Please do not let your mother's warped behavior influence your self worth.  You are worth so much more than that!  It is her loss.  She is missing out on knowing a very important person...you.


In recovery with you...


Julia

Hugs to you kitty,


I am so sorry you are having so much stuff from your Mom. I certainly do understand that.

Thanks to all of you who respond (& have in the past) it means a lot to be understood & appreciated...  you all help me to appreciate myself a little bit more.


 


I have a tendency to NOT reach out when I'm not doing so well as depression kinda grabs me, working on learning how to reach out more too, thanks to you all.
