[quote=Anonymous]Anxiety isn't really her fault, and I'm sure it causes her pain too. My mom is kind of similar in some ways, and I've noticed a lot of change and see a lot more now that I am a grown up. We live close and though I am sometimes anxious to be around her, I would say we have a good, close relationship. There can be tension, but we do not fight. My children ADORE her and vice versa. I try to limit my gripes to my husband to condensed, intense venting sessions. I try to do things with her that are fun like lunch or shopping (this is her world, so I just do it). I try to call and email, and I redirect when things get weird. Don't know that I have advice for you, but I do try to meet her on her terms, because she has some terms that are pretty neutral or pleasant. [/quote]
