[quote=Anonymous]I would wonder if either I have developed worse behavior patterns or if my middle aged child is dealing with increasing mental health issues. Or both. I was tempted to cut my mom off in middle age, because her anxiety was off the charts and she was super mean, at the same time I was trying to get my own spiraling anxiety under control. Same genetics and unfortunately same emotional environment. My therapist even suggested cutting off my family for a while, but I knew that would only led to more intense problems with them later and they would definitely not seek to understand. So I did low contact and developed ways of dealing. Fell apart when they finally died, mainly from the mental and physical exhaustion of dealing with them. [/quote]
