At my breaking point, I hate my mother.

@S02

YOU give someone that power over you. YOU allow that person to break you, to bring you unhappiness and heartache. You allow that pain into your life. And YOU have the power to change that by making yourself less vulnerable.

Here are some things that I think you should do/reflect on to help you move forward:

1. Accept that your mother will not treat you right. She will not be fair to you. She will not show you the love and consideration that you deserve. This is not fair to you. But it is not something you can change.
2. Expect literally nothing from your mother, not even the basic decency anyone should be expected to show toward another human being. These expectations will only serve to set you up for disappointment.
3. Accept any kindness, love, consideration she offers you with an open heart and enjoy it. Do not question her motives or dwell on it too much.
4. Do not look for others’ approval to feel good about yourself.
