Mine has told me something similar. Every time I bring up the guilt I have for feeling like I am being a bad daughter, she says that in order to get through to the other side...in order to have a happy and harmonious relationship with my mom, I have to feel those feelings first. It is REALLY hard. I still can't do it, because guilt takes over so quickly. I feel like I have no reason to have any long-lasting negative feelings towards my mom. SIgh.
Anger? What is that! I think my T thinks I am angry at my mom...but I dont know. I don't feel it.
