How are you coping today? #7

TishaBuv · 08:01 AM

I feel sad for my mother, and guilty. She has decompensated into a severely openly angry, toxic person. She’s very elderly, so I excuse and forgive her. She’s very ill. I feel guilty because she wanted me to be her rescuer, and I couldn’t do it. Much of this is contrarian and convoluted as to what she actually wanted from me. Her wishes were only expressed in passive aggressive ways, so I am not really sure what she wanted anyway. But, the idea I should feel guilty has come across loud and clear.

She is being so antagonistic I am honestly afraid someone will hurt her.

My T suggested a workbook called "The Neurodivergent Friendly Workbook of DBT Skills" A workbook of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy Skills reframed to be neurodivergent friendly with the added bonus of accessible mindfulness practices, sensory strategies and managing meltdowns. By Sonny Jane Wise

I am hoping this will be helpful in helping me with my emotions.
