dnancy... I so understand the critical nature of critical parent, there may be love there - they love you and you love them but oh what they can do to our self esteem! So glad you felt better with the distance - it's amazing how much better we are when no one criticize us. We just have to remember how absolutely wonderful we are!
Great job journalling!!!!
Thank you d Elly! I always wondered how many she's have had critical loving family members - there are those great things about them and the not good for us things about our loved ones; esp. those high unrealistic expectations of the ones they love.
