[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] To posters saying I need therapy, thanks. I've been in therapy since I experienced postpartum depression when my son was born, and my relationship with my mom and learning to detach from her manipulation tactics and set healthy boundaries has been a huge part of that. That is specifically why the name issue continues to bother me -- because now that I better understand how to assert myself and deal with her behavior, my son's name is a strong reminder of how hard that used to be for me and how miserable she used to make me. This name change is something I've discussed with my therapist (who is supportive) and is absolutely part of me developing a healthier relationship with my mom.[/quote] OP, thank you for sharing this. I can now see why making this change is so important to you and to your healing moving forward. It sounds like what you have decided to do is the right solution. Best to you.[/quote]
