Your father is in some deep ****. That dynamic right there is yet another reason why people like her can literally get away with murder.

Yep, Friday I was trying to tell my dad that he had better start reading about the early onset of dementia and he said she said he had that. I was like, what? her dad is the one who died of dementia!
I told my dad she was totally dependent on him and if it wasn't for him she wouldn't be able to function.
That gets at the root of my anger towards her.
She always complained about him as I was growing up, but she was never alone.
I on the other hand married a man she approved of who turned out to be a sociopath. I have been a single mother for the past 11 years. I have been doing it on my own. My mom makes fun of me for my ptsd, my economic status, its simply awful.
Yes, I am still angry at her.
What's even worse is when people project their personality disordered mothers on to me, that makes me even angrier. I'm like, are you kidding me?
That's why I was talking about fleas.
I remember the first time on another forum for friends and family of people with bpd when someone started treating me like I had bpd. I came over here and I was like, what? and I was told that even though we were in treatment, we may still have pd-ish type behaviors. That calmed me down, although it still makes me bristle when someone slaps a pd label on me. I mean geez, my own t doesn't even think I have bpd traits, and I asked her directly on Saturday.
People can be so frustrating.
