I have tried to talk to Mum about how she makes me feel. She spends all of her time guilt tripping me and ultimately it's just easier on me emotionally if I tell her what she wants to hear. Sometimes that is hard...when I make a mistake she expects me to apologise but at the same time it's the last thing I should say according to her. Yea...It's complicated.

I must admit I always look forward to my visit with my therapist. It helps temporarily to talk about things, and that's not a bad thing, even though I haven't found it to be a long-term solution to anything. But then again, I have only been going for a few months. Go, because it's good to talk, but don't expect too much out of it either. I am curious...what is wrong with your feet? Good luck with therapy.

I think your mother needs a solid kick in the ass. It angers me *so* much when parents behave that way. Maybe because my own mother behaves like that often. That said, if it means that you're starting therapy, then, that's good :) It can't hurt. It's just unfortunate that you had to have your mother break privacy and trust that way.
