my mom never asked me how i was doing so i have been asking myself that as often as i feel i need to.

and i have been working on my rejection issues - not only because of my emotionally distant mom (she couldn't help it, that's how she was raised) but also from my sibs icing me out when i was a kid because they felt (very ironically) that i was mom's favorite. (one of them apologized to me last year) i have been consciously rejecting their treatment of me as being their issue, not mine, and separate to who i really am.

i have been looking into the mirror and telling myself how happy i am to see me. and praising myself whenever i feel i have done something good. this might sound a bit nutty but it has really helped me fill some of the void. i used to feel empty inside but it is getting better.

after a lifetime of passively accepting the status quo, to think that i, me, myself, can, even in the slightest way, fix what i feel needs to be fixed...well, it feels amazing and encouraging..it isn't too late.

terry... these are good,.

while my mother did ask me how I was doing, no matter how I responded (I was good, I was bad, I'm not sure), it was always the same answer- oh well

I had some of the same experiences you mentioned. Thank you for sharing and being open and giving some ideas.

i'm sorry she answered you that way. several people suggested we parent ourselves if our caregivers didn't do it right. i also read the book 'healing your emotional self' by beverly engel and that helped too. i hope something will help you/us.

i really hope you will try self-parenting. my mom has passed so there is no way to fix my upbringing through her but i hope parenting myself is another way to heal. it doesn't cost a thing and we can do it anytime, anywhere.

I spent all my spare money for the month on some art materials which seems like a crazy luxury given that I have a long list of items that are needed - but the delivery driver hasn't arrived yet and the company that employ him said that they are having trouble with him! I just hope he's not having a melt down for some reason.

Edit: Just seen on the online tracking screen that he's driving to a different town now!!! I was meant to be painting today.
