[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Count me as another one who feels an agonizing kind of sadness when I see a loving mother and daughter.  I don't know how I am ever going to let it go.  I didn't even realize until well into my own adult life that I missed much, much more than I realized.

Out of curiosity, OP and PPs...when you say "years of therapy," how many are we talking about?  I know everyone's journey is unique, but damn, sometimes I feel like I will never make any progress.[/quote]

PP, this is OP. I've been in and out of therapy for 17 years. I've worked through mountains of hurt, sadness, shame, guilt, etc. I don't live with the past as much anymore, and objectively, I owe all those years of therapy for helping me become the decent person I am today. But I still have work to do, and I am just so damn tired of trying to rise above the dysfunctional patterns/behaviors/thinking I escaped years ago. I wonder how far my potential would take me if I could just let go and accept the loss of the mother I will never have.

Anyway, you are not alone in how your feeling. Best of luck to you.[/quote]

Thanks, OP.  To you as well.  [/quote]
