Dear rainbowmystica:

I am glad you talked to your father because now you know his position and won’t be wondering about it. I wish his position was different. Unfortunately, he is not going to support your healing this way.

I do hope you follow your friend’s example of living on her own as she has done and getting a job. Very important for you to move out and the sooner the better.

Now I understand your name here, rainbow mystica. Wear what you’d like, be who you are in spite of your mother’s disapproval. I personally disapprove of your mother because she disapproves of her own daughter being authentic. So her disapproval of you has no validity for me. I hope you see it this way.

Please post anytime. And again, I can’t stress enough how important and quite urgent it is or you to move out.
