This may be a shock to you, or most likely you took the quiz because you knew deep down something wasn't right.In an unhealthy relationship with your mother you will often feel critisised, shamed, unimportant, not good enough, like you are walking on eggshells around her, and find your mother feels emotionally absent.Mothers like this tend to be very smothering and controlling, leading you to feel incapableor trapped, or absent and neglecting, leading you to need to become unltra-independent.“If a mother has an unhealthy need to dominate her children-which she demonstrates by bullying, terrifying, neglecting, suffocating, indulging, humiliating, overprotecting or abusing them- those children must come to the recognition that such treatment is wrong in order to begin the long process of recovery and ultimate understanding.”― Victoria SecundaReady to begin your healing journey?
