I love her so much and I might trust her too much if I deny my own worry of crossing tracks to follow her, but yeah.

I don't think people mean to 'bash' LCM as such, rather everyone hopes that you will get what you need in the form of a trauma therapist as well. Quite simply LCM does not seem to have the skill to guide you onto the right track (ha! see what I did there
) for healing. She seems to fulfill a different kind of role - I think she basically gives you much needed love.
Personally I think what you have with LCM is muddled and confusing BUT very precious and worthwhile. I wonder if you can come to accept that she won't ever actually be your mother, and be at peace with that. Only the two of you really know how the relationship functions, and only you can decide for yourself if the benefits outweigh the disadvantages.
