So sorry to hear about mom but glad you're down in FL close to family during this time. Props to you for being dedicated to your inner work and healing. Panic attacks are no joke. Hope you are feeling strong, solid, supported. Much love to you & yours.
Dear Brandon, wow! Such a great surprise to catch your video!!!!! I've also been doing a whole lot of inner child work in therapy in the last couple of years, and it's helped so much. You asked what someone would do if they weren't able to have conversations with family memebers... well in my case I've just this past year given up on hoping that I would hear my mother say "I love you. you are worhty of my love, you matter to me, etc." or even give me a hug. I thought what I needed to helwwp me heal from my extremely abusive childhood and Trauma was at bare minimum her acknowledgement of how messed up my life's been. The best I got was gaslighting, her saying that I wanted attention, and blaming me for what I went through. However, after waiting 42 years I forgave her for ME, so I could get passed it so I could heal. I'm so happy for those who are able to get that type of closure I desperately needed, but understand will never get. It restores some faith in humanity for me. I'm so sorry to hear about your mom and her diagnosis, Cancer sucks man! Another huge thing for me has been loosing both of my Dad's parents and uncle with-in an exact calander year. Those 3 people were my family that showed me the true meaning of unconditional love and what Family does and acts towards eachother, that was a HUGE loss and source of anxiety and depression for me, my first birthday and holidays without them, and I spent them completely alone, because my mother's behavior got 10 times worse directed at me, so my choice was to not put myself in a horrible situation where my mental health would spiral even more. Yes it sucked that I didn't get to see my kids, but they didn't need to see me that way either they deserve better than to see me get screamed at and hit by my mother.
