It's taken time and healthy people (my husband, therapists, mentors, etc.) to help me understand how to live independently of my mom. How to not carry my mom's mental wellness.
Years of being my mom’s counselor blurred the lines of our relationship well into my marriage. Todd and I would get into fights because he could see and hear the bad boundaries but I would constantly chose my mom over Todd because it was the path of least resistance even though choosing my mom wasn't really what I wanted.
