The longer you stay, the more damage she'll do!

It took me 33.5 years to escape mine ... Amid all her warnings of failing, falling flat on my face, being incapable and ending up homeless ... I took the leap anyhow & here I am 23 years later ... And, I'm still standing!

It hasn't been easy, and I have to constantly combat all the negative, internalized messages my abusive female parental unit ingrained into my brain, but so far I've proven the evil @#$%! wrong, and that's a victory in and of itself!

Still got a lot of good livin' to do out here ... And,

I hope you can find the courage and strength to break away sooner than later so you can start livin' yours too!

Sincerely,
Pfrog!
