My temper went off...My mother...she is a big trigger for me. She lives with us due to her age and dependence on others. I am not very mobile right now due to a broken foot that I am not allowed to bear weight on. (doc appt tomorrow..maybe that will change yay!) Her constant questions and meddling in my affairs is so getting to me.
To make a long story short...because I was frustrated with mother...I went off shortly after on my 17yr old daughter. Just yelling and being mad...don't get me wrong...my 17yr old has a mouth too..but I know I wasn't acting very much my age or motherly. I feel stuck as a child when my mother is grilling me...it could be what's for dinner..or what are your plans today? (I can't walk lady...it's been 6 weeks of this...what do you think I'm gonna do today???) Then when things are going on with my 17y old...she has to put her nose in it which makes me more angry...THEN...when my husband comes home as soon as he walks in the door she tells him I was yelling and screaming at everyone...that I had her so upset...poor mother...uggg!! It just ticks me off the minute that I see her...she makes me clench my teeth...I avoid her as much as possible. In advance...we are working on moving away from her...she has been emotionally abusive since I can remember and she covered for my older brother whom SA me when I was very young. I don't understand why I can lash out at my daughter..but I can't say to my mother how I really feel about her...that she is the reason I am this way and I am afraid I am passing it along to my daughter...(things have not always been this way with me yelling...just in the past few months due to lots of stress coming my way.)
