Parents are supposed to be nice and when they are nice they get nice things back. But when they are mean and nasty and do hurting things of course their kids are not going to want to be around them even when they are grown up! They just remember all the hurt and bad stuff and are scared they are gonna get more of it. She must have done some dumb stuff for you to be feeling so wonky and scared. I know how that feels because I get that way too with my folks. Just remember shes coming for one night and then shes going again okay? Its just one night and maybe some protector ones who are still kind of responsible can be by your side and help you feel stronger and in control. I am sorry you are feeling so bad. I hope you will feel much better once she is gone again.


Thank you for you encouraging words!!

It is just for one night and she has to leave tomorrow morning, for another appointment, by 9ish. That does make it feel better.

I pray it’s non eventful.

Still waiting to hear if my counselor can reschedule my session tonight for another night this week. If he doesn’t have another time available, I’m going to go to my session and see how that goes when I get home.

I agree it shouldn’t be this way and I so wish it wasn’t.
