[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would make it about her, not the impact on you - eg “I’ve noticed your abuse is often on the forefront of your mind. I worry that having it so actively weighing on you holds you back from being able to enjoy things you want to like socializing with friends and being able to relax. I wonder if a professional could help you gain some control over it, im happy to help you look into it if you want because I want you to be able to enjoy things” If she still declines there isn’t much you can do besides limiting how you include her so you don’t turn annoyed and hostile on her. [/quote] I agree with this sentiment, but it's too long, keep it simple: "I noticed that your past trauma is often at the forefront. I'm sorry that its actively weighing on you and preventing you from enjoying life and being able to relax. What can I do to help you? I think a professional might also be a good resource."[/quote]
