“The poisoned well” is a helpful description of this dynamic. I have blamed myself for not having the mental and emotional strength to be unaffected. I am not angry because I knew her mother. I don’t have to be angry at the well to not fall into it. So helpful, thank you.

Mother’s day is tough for me but hearing the sound of your child playing in the background while you share this information brings me comfort, as it shows evidence that you can heal and thrive as a mother. I’m still conflicted about being a mother up until now because of the traumatic relationship I had with my mother. I’m committed to breaking that cycle. Thank you for all you do, Ruth. Happy Mother’s Day.

Oh she burned me that one last time.
So weird to see how she is so very empty but gets supply to fill.
Have at it folks!

It’s a scary thing to realize, it’s a tough truth to take in. Because it changes our whole life and how we see the world and other people. But it’s so true. I can’t change my mama. Or anyone else.

My Mother Conjured Up the "perfect mother" image to others. But never showed me that person. At 51 I'm just now learning that this wonderful mother image was never for my benefit, and She Never Existed. That it's Not My Fault that She *Could-Not-Be That Person for me.

I know exactly how you feel 💗

3:50 your mum is more concerned with meeting her own needs, than yours 4:30 mourning grieving , accept your mum for who she has shown you to be

I thought for years if i just was a better daughter I could get her to just like me. She only claimed to love me when she needed something or to evoke sympathy after I went no contact. Unfortunately the mother myth that a mother’s love is unconditional. Love, understanding and wishes for strength to all those who are recovering from maternal narcissistic abuse and emotional neglect… especially on mother’s day 💜

Spent 53 years doing this. I’ve heard of this as compulsive repetition. My head knows it’s not going to be different but it’s a visceral response btwn my child and her as my mother. I had to become my own mama bear to heal my child. My first conscious emotion was sadness for not having the adult mother I needed and I’m still grieving. Thanks for your content 🙏🏾
