Hi. Just blew in here. I usually am on the dissociative disorders forum, since I am DID, but I also have PTSD. I don't know your situation and would not presume to tell you what to do, but I will tell you that in my own experience, I didn't really to make fast, significant progress until I finally decided to make a clean break from my dad and stepmother (my perps). It was difficult and painful, but I decided for my own progress and sanity, I had to do it. I sent a letter to them telling them that I wanted no further contact from them, ever. And, I am serious. I won't even go to his funeral if he ever dies, because in my mind he is dead to me already. Sometimes with these things we have to make really hard decisions, and chances are that you will never feel safe inside if she is still in your life in any way. You can snow yourself with meds if you want, but that isn't going to solve the real problem. Like I said, I don't know you and every person's situation is individual, just something to consider.
