[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I could have written this. My  mom is very emotionally immature. She gets upset for any perceived slight from me or from DC. She got upset when DC was 3 and cried and didn't want to be held by my mom and still brings it up to this day years later. She'll cry or tantrum at DC's events when she feels she's not getting enough attention, either by me or DC. It's bizarre and uncomfortable, so I drastically limit how much time we (and especially DC) spend around her. Unfortunately, that triggers her and seems to exacerbate the issue (again, a perceived lack of attention) so it's this really dysfunctional, upsetting cycle. I'm not sure what the answer is. Alas, this is part of the reason I am in therapy because this behavior makes me feel completely insane. [/quote]

Loneliness! Your mother feels lonely.

Does she have close friends? Hobbies? A local community she feels part of? Church? Does she socialize with non-family members?[/quote]

lol, no. This would be a super weird reaction to loneliness… sounds more like narcissism to me [/quote]
