I have done a lot of positive changes in my life these past few years. My mom and I have gotten along off and on my whole life. She tends to be controlling, judgemental, and critical. My dad and I get along well. Anyway, this past week I was thinking of my relationship with her, and realized that even though I love her because she is my mom, I don't really like her. When I try to think of ANYTHING we have in common, I can't come up with anything. I have wanted to talk to a therapist about this, but am waiting until I have health coverage. I fell like the way she raised me is the exact opposite of what I have become and I don't really agree with her beliefs. On top of this, she calls and complains endlessly about my dad. He works too much, is ever around, blah blah.... It's so frustrating. I can set up boundaries with her but she crosses them evertime. I am in my late twenties and married, but she still wants me to call her when I get home from visting her. Contd....
