| My mother's birthday is April 12 and I am thinking about it all the time. We had a break up and are barely speaking. Not going will bring on the guilt but going has its price on my mental and physical health. What can I do? Sazzy in Texas (I joined today)

Hi Sazzy!
I understand your dilemna. I was in the same situation with my N father just this past Sunday. I had decided to see him a few days after his birthday, because I was physically ill and wasn't up to dealing with his abusive, intimidating ways. Well, a few days have passed, and I'm still not in the mood. I don't feel guilty. In fact, I feel good about not going. Why subject myself to abuse? I'm tired of of putting up with his insanity. I don't want to be his punching bag.
I hope you're able to decide what's best for you. Sometimes if contact ends up abusive, it's okay not to see our parent, especially if seeing them will provoke you to react in unhealthy ways.
Best wishes.
Danielle

Thank you, Danielle, for sharing your experience and feelings about this subject.
I still don't know what to do. I suppose I should follow my heart (intuition) and not feel guilty doing what it tells me. Do you have a NM also?
Sazzy
