Thank you for validating my reaction!

It’s very hard tho’ she keeps begging and pleading and short of “disappearing” either her or myself, I’m not sure what to do.

Just from what I know about your situation, you need to disappear yourself and seriously like do it yesterday- this neediness is so far from love, and with her knowledge of drugs, your LIFE is on the line. Good luck, as daughters of crazy mothers we need to stick together and help with reality checks because I understand the guilt, but honey if you value your life remember the fear that night… and get yourself a new name and leave.

It’s the most natural thing in the world, and at ANY AGE- to crave the love and protection of your mother. So many are Susan Smiths and Casey Anthonys though… and I am willing to bet you’ve forgiven past actions of hers that were far from maternal love- because that’s what we do. Don’t beat yourself up just realize she’s dangerous and unworthy of being part of your life. ❤️ and strength to you, from someone who has survived attempts on my life.
