It’s sad how my mom and I are the only ones in the living room, the tv is off… And we haven’t said a word to each other.
I mean my relationship with my mom has always been rocky… But I think she is disgusted with me. I’m fat and ugly and when she found out about my SI she freaked. It’s sad that I can’t have a normal conversation with her anymore. I can’t call her when I’m upset. I can’t text her for advice or she will go crazy. It’s just sad that I think my relationship with my mom is gone. I’m scared it will never come back.
What if you told your Mom that? What if you wrote her a letter and said exactly that? Tell her you can’t talk to her when she freaks out. Parents are NOT perfect, she can’t read your mind. I have a feeling she’s not going anywhere – and is just waiting and hoping you’ll reach out for help.
Keep us posted. Pam
It’s a shock to most parents that their children SI. My dad freaked when he found out about me..I guess they never expect it and if they do they just don’t want to really confront you about it because it scares them and they think they have failed and honestly in some cases some parents have failed.
