WITTI!! Dang! I'm sorry. I totally meant to write back to you on this. I don't have time right now to really do it justice because I'm at work, but I wanted you to know I read everything you said, and no, absolutely not 'TMI.' I love my 'I.' Gives me a clearer picture.
Man, that must have really been rough on you with your Mom being that way. I'm so sorry. The Jekyl and Hyde thing almost seems worse (and may very well be) than having a full-time "Hyde," know what I mean? I mean, if someone's a Hyde, you expect them to be a Hyde so at least the behavior is predictable. With the switching back and forth between the two, though, you must have felt like you were walking around on egg shells (and I do believe you said that you did, in fact.)
As for you concerns abt Motherhood, they are reasonable, but I doubt very seriously you'd do like your Mom, the total control freak. Or the over-indulgent parent, either. Keep talking to your T about it. I'm sure your T meant "vigorous and lively" in the most positive of ways. You may also want to think about parenting classes. I think those would be a good idea for anyone thinking of having children. (o:
Well, sorry I was not able to address everything you said. Get this: before I typed this message, I had one all ready to send to you where I had commented directly on several things you said. I was almost finished and we lost power here at the office! I was like ARGHGHGHGH!!! Anyway, I wanted you to know I did see this and sorry I did not comment sooner. Thanks for taking the time to share that with me. Never TMI.
I hope you're doing well today. 'Talk' to you soon. (o:
Sharon
