You're able to tell T you're "off limits" topics.

As soon as I hear her voice I tense up. You walk into the house, a hoarders house, that just intensifies everything, she will always say sorry for the mess I've been sorting thru things. She is a hypochondriac also. I've been putting off calling her about Xmas plans because she will go on about something. So I know the triggers, that's why I just avoid her all together, isn't that a coping skill? Lol
