[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 662763, member: 1550"] This IS the real problem. And on many levels, I wonder why we believed them. I have tried to figure it out, but I can't. If a stranger had lobbed the silly things at me that my mother did, I would have rolled my eyes and forgotten it. But...well, it was Mom. I formed in her womb...ick, wish I hadn't, but I did. So I guess that's the issue. Still. Why did I still buy her words when I was an adult, when I was so certain of her abuse and spoke openly about it to my therapists and in self-help groups. Why didn't I just tell myself, "What do I care if Mom said I was selfish, lazy, no good, bad, etc.? She is one fry short of a Happy Meal and I don't believe half of what she claims. Why do I buy THAT about ME?" Why? Any insight? [/QUOTE]
