Guest guest Posted August 15, 2010 Report Share Posted August 15, 2010 Wow, . I have been witnessing this transition of yours as you've shared over the past few months. I'd not fully realized that you were going so abruptly NC, from your nada and fada's perspective. I know you have been planning this for a long while and you have been preparing emotionally. Kind of reminds me of my moving out when I was 18. I knew, with certainty my June birthday, that I was moving as soon as it was feasible to do so. OK, so it took me nearly six months to clean my room and get emotionally and financially read to do it. My mom had no clue until the night before my move, when I brought the packed boxes downstairs! Then, she thought she would talk me out of it.... and we all went to bed. While nada slept, I put everything out onto the lawn. And was gone. Took her about six months to get over it. As for me, I was going through so much change with my own identity and independence (no name change though) that my issues with her were just part of the process of self-acceptance. I learned from this that leaving nada was just a first step .Wherever I have gone since then, there is always something to learn about myself and grow into or out of. Having a space to heal, that is not impacted by nada's direct influence, is what really matters. Wishing you the best in your new life adventure.
