Dear Lada:

There is work to be done. Like I wrote to you in my earlier post today, my healing is ongoing. There is more work to be done. And so it is for you- there is more work to be done. Enjoy your life as is right now; never live with your mother again. At some point, seek therapy with a competent, empathetic therapist. Keep your relationships with others healthy: Empathetic, Assertive, Respectful (EAR). When you hear the critical voices, let the voice of reason talk to you louder than those voices. Talk to yourself gently, lovingly.

And do post anytime.
