So she was giving feedback you just didn't like what she said.
MUE, I think that you will learn a lot of things about yourself through this and don't you think that leaving this unresolved this week has added to your stress? I do hope that you go tonight and try to resolve this for yourself.

My boss talks down to me and criticizes me on a regular basis. It's pretty awful. My parents did the same, while my sister sat on her pedestal. My ex-husband used to be very controlling....But I don't usually see people as above or below me....I see people trying to act above me....I generally see people as equals, with their own hurdles, struggles, successes, etc.
Indeed, this woman was speaking up - but she wasn't giving me feedback. She was giving the group feedback about how she felt ignored and left out...which had nothing to do with what I was sharing with the group. Maybe this group doesn't know how to handle deep stuff.
I got a couple responses to my post, and although much of it was very critical, explaining more about their disappointment in me, etc. - there were also parts that were reassuring.
I'm undecided at the moment if I plan to attend group tonight. I don't want to feel more distant and detached from the group...but at the same time, I don't know if I can handle more right now. I have a screaming migraine and am incredibly exhausted....
