Thank you so much. I know it's such a small step to simply stand up for myself, but it helped me and I feel like I'm on the right path.
I always JADE - I keep trying not to. Its really tough not to try and explain and justify.
And yes, I wondered if her outbursts were to do with the fact I'm trying to to buy into the drama. I'm trying not to just stand there and listen as she lists what i've done wrong this time or the new things I don't do or she feels I do to her.
My boundaries are weak - I've known that for a long time and I struggle to enforce them - I'm not really sure I really know how to do that. I keep reading about it but I'm not sure I get it. I'm a work in progress on my boundaries.
Thank you for all your support even tho my positive step is so very small.
