- I've not been on this forum for a couple of years. It wasn't because I was doing better. It was because I thought that I needed a break. Before I left I had been a member for a few years. I was starting to get overwhelmed with how many new member...
- Three weeks ago my L breast started leaking blood and pus. My Dr ordered a mammo and an ultrasound right away. The pictures weren't very clear but they do show that there is a problem with one of the ducts. My Dr, a female, told me that she is very...
- I have this thought every year as Mother's Day approaches. Do my ED's think of me on Mother's Day and are they sad we don't have a relationship anymore? I believe they think of me and I also believe that they have a sad moment or moments on that day...
- I used to pray so hard for a reconciliation. I fantasized and dreamed about it for years. Around the 13th year I came to the conclusion that it would NEVER happen. In fact, I really didn't want it to happen. Too much water under the bridge, too much...
- After reading the post, "Makes you wonder", I immediately came to the conclusion that I am NOT the same person I was while raising my ED's and then after wards until they discarded me. Let me explain. My abusive EX did not let me be the person that...
- Earlier this year my DH's EX fell and hurt herself so bad that she was in ICU for 4 days. My DH's #2 daughter lives near her mother 800 miles from us. (His other 2 children live near us) Daughter #2 depends on her mother to babysit and seemed like...
- Wow! Sixteen years! For some of you it has been longer, but for most of you your hearts are still in the crushing stage. I've come through some really dark, dark times. What I have learned is that I am a survivor. I am stronger than I ever thought...
- Today is my oldest ED's birthday. She is 44. I was 18 when I had her.....very young and very naïve. Her youngest daughter's birthday is the 1st of Oct, her husband's is the 11th, my ED's is the 14th, and her oldest daughter's is the 21st of this...
- This past Sunday, the 21st, was my youngest ED's birthday. I didn't feel sad or disconnected. After all, I haven't been allowed to celebrate her birthday for 15 years. But, I visited her Facebook page which I happen to do once in a while just to see...
- I won't go into too many details, but I have been estranged again. This time by my step-daughter. My DH has 3 children, 2 daughters and a son. His youngest daughter, who is 32, lives 1700 miles away. She moved several years ago to be near her mother...
- I have been taking a writing class for the last six months. It is a writing class about writing your memoirs. I wanted to take the class because I have all of these stories floating around in my head that I need to put down on paper. The only...
- You know those FB pages that are about our "hometowns"? Ones like, "If You Grew Up in _____, You Remember When.......". Anyone can go on these sights and posts pictures of their hometown or post remarks about things that they remember about it. With...
- My Mother, God bless her, sends my ED's messages through FB on their birthdays or at other times if they happen to post something that she wants to respond to. Neither of the ED's are "friends" with my Mom, but she goes to their FB pages to see...
- Yesterday my oldest ED turned 43. I barely thought about it. I'm only mentioning it now because I am so glad I am over getting depressed everytime one of my ED's or EC have a birthday. Next Mother's Day will be a piece of cake!
- Did anyone else see the post on PEACE from the asshole who was trying to explain away her side of why she decided to estrange herself from her parents? I'm livid! She didn't give any better of an answer on "why" than any of our own EC have. What a...
