My T has told me I am healthier than my mom...last session he said "to be honest, when I think of your mom, I get angry". I've told him the truth about my parents marriage, how I was treated, our current relationship, etc. So, he's developed quite an opinion about her. He also said that he thinks I'm a bit stronger than her because I choose to go to therapy and work on my issues, and better myself..when she continues to deny that she needs it.
It upsets me because I love my mom so much and she is the most important person in the world to me...but yes, she has her isses and tends to be one of the biggest issues in MY life. My T and I both agree that she needs therapy desperately.
