Having to deal with my parents the last two days after not speaking to them since New Years has left me both physically and emotionally drained. They still treat me as if I am a disobedient child, I am 32 and a mother myself. The way they act and treat me is ridiculous. I begged them yesterday to let me be. That stress makes the flare up of #Fibromyalgia worse but did they listen, no. Even after I stopped answering my mom continued to text me today. When a text starts with I am not trying to upset you, you know it will be an upsetting text. I ignored it most of the day but it kept playing in my head, and being that I am also #Bipolar1 I knew that this was a recipe for disaster. So I decided to just call her and try and tell her I needed space and that she needs to back off. HUGE MISTAKE. She immediately starts in on how I hurt her, I just stopped her and said I can’t do this anymore. I need time to take care of myself and you constantly guilting me all the time is not going to make that happen. I told them both they are welcome to see my daughter any time they like. I even apologized before I hung up. I really need to work on the apologizing for making a decision to better myself. Now I’m laying here my cat Binx calming purring next to me. As I try and recover from all the drama that is my family. Hopefully they will listen and leave me be. If not I know I have to stay strong and keep telling myself that the only way I will ever truly be able to move forward in life is to keep them at a distance...
