What you allow is what will continue. After a lifetime of abuse, and that's what it was/is and I'm finally realizing that, I am now trying like crazy to DETACH. It is not easy -- not at all but WE will all be homeless mentally diminished from their skapegoating, guilting, manipulating & gaslighting. So I am TRYING because I don't feel like a whole person anymore. Thank you my lovely son!

Just read a recommended article on detachment. Also read some of the posts. Boy can I relate. I received a text from my son stating don't bother to call or text him because I am refusing to help. I do want to help him even knowing it will be to my detriment. I have not given in, yet. Trying to stay strong.
Please please stay strong. He is very manipulative. Do not give in.

Yes. Manipulation is their language. It’s sad.


If I had a nickel for every time my son told me I was dead to him . . .

My son told me that me deciding NOT to pick him up after he was discharged was unforgiveable. This is from a son of whom I gave money to that that he was using for porn. I actually did let him stay a week before he moved on to his dad's . But, he thought he would just "let me know this."
Very manipulative!!! Don't give in to their accusations.
