[quote=Anonymous]I was like this years ago. I always thought, if I changed this one thing, I'd be happy. If I bought this one thing, I'd be happy. If I did this one thing, then I'd be happy. Of course I never was happy, and it snowballed into me making some really bad choices in life that came with consequences. I learned the hard way that my own happiness comes from myself. In therapy I learned gratitude, healthy coping skills, and did a lot of self-reflection. Not sure your mom would be open to therapy and all it could entail, but I agree that pointing out the pattern might be helpful and get her thinking. Unfortunately I did not see my pattern until I hit rock bottom and I wouldn't want that for others. Good luck.[/quote]
