[QUOTE="Mom2oddson, post: 387888, member: 65"] There is[B] Nothing[/B] wrong with you!! You are [B]Not[/B] a horrible person!! You are a wonderful person who loves and protects her kids. You are a caring person who is learning to take care of herself. You are not the problem. Your Mother is. Her actions remind me of the "hot-potato" or "dribbling" behavior that my therapist explained. It goes like this, the main person is filled with so much yuck that they have to do something with it. Since they don't have the skills needed to process it in a healthy way, they pass it on. As in passing a hot-potato or a dribbling ball. Then the person who was their target is left holding the hot-potato or dribbling the ball. Sound like your Mom is handing you a bushel of potatoes. I'm so sorry you are going through all of this. {{{Hugs}}} [/QUOTE]
