Dear Gaia:

In your March thread you wrote: “my mom, she’s … extra-sensitive and somewhat victimist. I don’t like a lot to share those things with her cause later, I feel like I have to comfort her too besides myself, it’s exhausting… she’s somehow easily offended and emotional”-

It is scary for any child to have a parent, a main caretaker that is anxious. To feel safe a child needs a calm parent, a parent that the child perceives as strong and capable.

Can you elaborate on “extra sensitive”, “victimist” and “easily offended and emotional” ?
