At the last session, I brought in your last post to read because you were talking about your relationship to your mother as well as your son. I also have a difficult relationship with my mom, and one of my greatest worries/fears is that I will end up with my daughter feeling about me as I do about my mother. My T has been trying to help me see that the two relationships actually don't have a lot in common with each other. It is all part of my worry that everything I have done in the past, every misstep with my daughter will come back to bite me, and my punishment will be having a relatonship like I do with my own mother. It is all so confusing, this intergenerational mother-daughter thing! Anyway, he really helped me with some insights yesterday in that department. Which is good because I'm going to see my mother next week.
