Yes, you both have gone through some traumatic stuff!

My mother also refused to admit scenes happened where she was out of control. She’s just verbally abusive, mostly. There was an epic scene in an airport recently. She just won’t admit it happened. Lol

In fact, now she’s saying she gets into a rage and has venom spewing from her mouth that she doesn’t mean. But, she only fesses up to that because she’s so obviously out of control, she can’t deny it. She has no remorse for it. She says, “I’m a screamer”, and she’s just fine with that. She says her recipients deserve it.

Plus— she even called me stupid for turning my anger on to myself, and that I should let it out to others like she does. She’s much smarter than me and I am stupid.
