Mother's day is very triggering for me.When I was a kid I used to believe all mothers behaved like my mom .Spiteful,hateful,raging,physically,mentally,verbally cruel and abusive.I used to go to my friend's place after school to avoid my mom's hostility.I thought it was weird that my friend's mom used to smile at her and asked her if she was hungry.I thought mothers were supposed to beat, yell and be mean .I was that naive, Hope all the abuse survivors are healing and doing better.
