Re: i am a victim to a sociopath mother

I am also a child of a sociopath, notice I say child, as I feel the word victim would be defeating. Not because of any other reason butfore being her child do I feel an obligation, or I should say "DID" feel an obligation to stand by her and honor my mothers wishes, in my case there was no religion involved, just my sense of being, that by the way was groomed by her, my mother. So from the start I had to re-adjust my perspective as again they were groomed by a self serving maniac, and were very harmful to ONLY ME. It is only recent that I have learned to liberate myself from the clutches of evil. You have to first realize what is right for you this should not be left in then hands of someone that simply does not have the ability to love PERIOD! It took most of my life to realize what she was, but when I did realize, no matter how painful it was to walk away I knew I had to for self preservation. You have come this far, you recognize what she is, it is now up to you to love yourself. I know that is not easy, as you were taught to only love her, YOU DON'T MATTER, but that is not true and you know it. If your mother is a true sociopath she is not capable of doing anything good for you, it's only about her, even if that means hurting you, her desire is to please her and her only! That being said, learn to love you, start there, and be true to yourself at all times. Still doesn't make it easy but it's your life, LIVE IT!! Tweet
