Mom Issues

.. and I'm not talking about issues being a mom.


I'm talking about issues with my mom. We have a history of a rocky relationship and it's starting to rear it's ugly head again.


Alcoholic + Short Tempered Daughter = Nothing Good.

The holidays must be coming - family issues always get dialed up to 11 this time of year, don't they? We're here if you need us - hang in there!
Pull up a keyboard and come on in and vent. We'll all send u virtual hugs and support. You can do it. I'm sure u know the drill and the rules around dealing with an alcoholic. Stay true to them! Keep ur priorities and focus laser sharp (your own family, your own issues) and don't be dragged down the rat holes. You are brave and strong!

*hugs* that is so hard! and i think what makes it harder is that as they get older their brain filters errode and they start saying what they REALLY mean! hang in there! just remember she loves you even when she is being a pain. (ok i agree, MUCH easier said than done!!) good luck ...

Ugh, mom issues are tough. My mom is wonderful, but has a ton of complexes and I am short-tempered, like you, with my own issues - when two collide, bad news. I've tried to work on letting things go, but believe me, I fail to do it most of the time...
