Toxic

@Flower88 Hey Flower88 it does sound that you are doing the right thing. I am a firm believer in following your gut feeling. Whenever I hear that little voice on my shoulder talking to me I listen. greenpeax

hey @Flower88 well done. You gotta put your needs first.

My mother is a bit different to yours in that she abused and tortured me from birth till when I left home at 18yrs. She's a sociopath with no remorse and very dangerous to my well-being. She's getting on to be elderly these days so has finally stopped stalking me. Any contact with her triggers my psychotic symptoms.

It's not easy having a bad mother who exploits your vulnerabilities to your own detriment. I find it very alienating and isolating. I can't tell any of my friends as they all come from loving families. I have no one who understands me, certainly no one who supports me with the straim my mother causes. Due to all that peer pressure I've often doubted my sanity & if she's dangerous. I agree with @Bunniekins believe your gut - if you feel deep down she's dangerous to your health & well being, you're right. Stay away from her, go no contact.

Try to move on with your life without her. Try to spend time with other people instead who are safe.

Hey @Flower88 thinking of you.

I'm with @Bunniekins on this. Trust yourself. Self care first.

You are not making a rash decision here - it's been 3 years in the making.
