[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love my parents in the obligatory way, and occasionally enjoy talking to them/spending time with them, but the relationship fundamentally changed when I went to therapy in my mid-20s and realized how certain things they did messed me up. I've never seen them the same since, especially since becoming a parent myself.[/quote] This was me as well. It's really helpful to read all these responses because I see all the happy seeming families out there and feel very alone. When I started to make my own decisions in my 20s, when no longer financially tied to my parents, my mom went berserk. I always understood I needed to do things her way or "else." But did not think that meant for the rest of my life. I was wrong. Therapy has helped me feel less abnormal and more self confident in my decision making.[/quote]
