[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 619706, member: 13542"] Cedar, that story about the old woman in the mansion is absolutely chilling..........I had a visceral reaction to that story. Geez. What is it about that story that intrigues you? I am so sorry about the actions your mother and SS's mother have taken regarding your kids. It is such a monstrous betrayal to have our own mothers do that. Judgment is so hurtful and has such power to take us to our knees, in particular when it's our mother or our child. In reading those Brene Brown books about shame it cleared up so much for me. A shamed personality does harm to those it sees as authentic...........through judgment, criticism, whatever it takes to throw their own unseen and unacknowledged shame onto another. Reading that made so much sense to me about the harm that was done to me by others, others I chose to be in relationship with, who usually out of their awareness did damage to my vulnerable self............... when I least expected it, it would come roaring out like a sword and go straight for my weakest point. Once I came to know that, it was like a huge broom that swept all the hurts away, cleaned it out and the light of clarity began to shine.............I won't enter in to those connections anymore............that was definitely my "mother wound" which I was working out with other women for a long time. It sounds like your heart is hurting Cedar and I am very sorry about that...............perhaps starting a new thread about what is presently up for you...............we are here for you............whatever is going on...............as always, sending you warm, caring thoughts and gentle hugs.............
