Guest guest Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 Just a topic for discussion... My mom was always one who threatened suicide when I " disappointed " her. Even as an adult with my own family I find myself worrying that if I do not try my hardest to be what she needs she will kill herself.... In Feb. of this year she (for the first time) attempted suicide... It was a poor attempt but still an attempt. And as I am sure you can guess what some of the first things she said about the attempt was that she moved several states to live close to me and I am not making her happy. So, in summary she trys to blame me for her suicidal desires... As a child I remember sitting at home in complete shock and fear as she would tell me that I disappointed her so much that she would leave the house and tell me she was going to go run her car head on into a semi... Pretty tough on a little one.... I totally understand the concept of " walking on eggshells " ... I think this makes NC seem impossible because of what might happen if that is what I chose... She also refuses any sort of help (counseling...etc) and gets angry if it is suggested. Anyone else have experiences like this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
