[quote=Anonymous]I think you should write her a note saying "I was really sick and did and said things I wouldn't do and say when healthy. I am SO sorry I said such a horrible thing to you. I am healthy now and have lots of resources to stay healthy. My goal is for that to never happen again. If it does, know it has nothing to do with you, you're not responsible for me, my actions or my words (only I am) and I always love you." Having something tangible she can read and re-read might help what you're saying become more concrete in her head. And hey, talk to her about mental health, and anger management. "Wow, I'm REALLY angry right now - so angry I can feel that my breathing has changed. I'm going to walk around the block to calm down before I say something inappropriate." "I'm making my bed and raising the shades so my room is clean and bright - it helps people feel more cheery. What makes you feel more cheery?" [/quote]
