Sister and I are in a deep freeze. I finally put my foot down and said no more abuse. Huge fight. Standing my ground. It is upsetting though. She thinks I need to make caring for mom and brother my full time job and that I’m not doing enough. Excuse me?!?
I’m feeling very melancholy today. I’ve been taking my meds consistently so it’s probably just the things I mentioned and concerns with my boyfriend.
I hope everyone has a peaceful day.  |
It sounds like you have reasons to feel melancholy  Buuut...good for you for taking care of yourself with regard to your sister! I was always my mom's caregiver; my sisters were nowhere to be seen when it came to taking Mom to appointments and grocery shopping, and so on. One day I just had had enough. My mom was high-maintenance and I was exhausted. I called my oldest sister and said I NEED SOME HELP WITH MOM!!!! She did step up. I was extremely grateful.
Did your daughter give reasons as to why she isn't accepting of your boyfriend?
