I’m almost done. She didn’t have a lot of texts or voice mails because it was fairly new. But it reminds me how many people loved her and admired her. How she was so different from my dad. He didn’t help her get better.very complicated. I’m learning lately about co dependency and how we as people look to fill gaps. My mom was a workaholic and put up with my dad. I am a depressive and my marriage isn’t great. My mom was a co dependent and so am I. Just different but the same

I think that is such a wonderful thing to be reminded of. I hope you can capture it in some way and so lovey that it gives you something to think of when you are down. Are you able to capture the things that do that as a keep sake?

I'm sure what you have done will help you move on.

Hi fallen_leaf

It's good to know that you Mom had friends and was loved, that's very comforting.

Co-dependency is a subject on it's own :-) yes, we do as humans, learn to compensate for what is missing in our lives and it's very common and understandable in life today. A thought I had was that if we are in a close relationship for a long time are we more likely to become co-dependent, I personally think so, I don't know what other think though<3
