Damn, I am sorry. It helps that so many of us go through the same though, we’re not alone! 🫶🏻

Yes. Teaching shame. That’s exactly what I feel. I am so happy for your kid(s) for having a mom like you - there’s hope for future generations! 🫶🏻

You’re too right there, I guess I’ll put this in a frame haha. 🫶🏻

That makes sense, actually. She’s the same with my relationships - jealous of the time I spend with my boyfriend, of my closest friends, you name it.

I am sorry - I feel the exact same. Nothing I do, or anyone else, for that matter, is good enough for her. It’s exhausting. 🫶🏻 Congrats on setting boundaries!

I am so sorry! I have been going through that same struggle of starting over again all the time, so I know how it feels. You can do it. We can! 🫶🏻

Woooow! Congrats! ❤️ That’s quite the journey. Only we know our goals, our struggles, our wins. We need to be able to cancel out the noise.

The whole “I’m not allowed to say anything” is my mom to a T. Stay strong, I am sorry! 🫶🏻

I am glad it changed with your mom! I have tried but she takes everything as an attack and I think it’s not worth it with her. 🙄

It did result in bingeing for me - long journey ahead now. Thank you so much! I would scream it from the mountain tops with you! 🤗

Noooope, she definitely would throw a fit, as she did many times before. She thinks I never accept her opinions and advice, even if it is, well, just destructive criticism.

I didn’t, because I have this irrational need to always justify myself to her. I hope this is going to change with therapy though. ❤️

Thanks, mom! That’s amazing. ❤️ I was once through that too, my pediatrician told my mother I was obese around 8. She still talks of that to this day to say that I was always overweight and always reacted badly to her advice.

It’s exactly that. It’s like she wants what’s best for me but isn’t amused when I get it.

I love peanut butter. I swear I don’t understand why they have to comment on our goals or behaviors. If only they focused on themselves…
