I think most people have defied their parents in one way or another at some point in their lives.

So: you shouldn't have hit your mother, but one incident doesn't make a monster.

I can understand your fear of "becoming your mother". I'd be scared too.
But here's the difference: you have sought help, you are being helped, and you will get better.

And one day you will be a great mother.
Thank you CantExplain. Your words bring me to tears.

I'm starting to think it's a good thing I have two sessions this week. I am just not in a good frame of mind. Wednesday can't come soon enough.
