I used to be the type of person to burn bridges easily. I still can like with my dad and sister, but they were literally putting my life at risk. I think I made the healthy choice with them. I'm also the type that will try to forgive if the person tries to come back. I did that with every family member and even H.
I'm very similar to you, CNS. If I don't have space when I'm hurting, I will lash out... badly. I've been doing that all week with L. I haven't called her names, but I have cussed her out almost everyday.
I so appreciate you all. You are one of my resources, coping skills. The forums are actually a part of my safety plan with L. I need you all and depend on you. I value the input.
