Hi š¤ for those of you who are new here: welcome!! Iāve gotten some messages lately questioning why I havenāt been so active lately. Iām 32 years old and Iāve been living with my parents, who are both in their mid-60ās, since January 2020.
My dad had emergency brain surgery last summer so it ended up being a good thing I was here to help. Heās better now, and back to work.
My maternal grandma likes to remind me that I was āstuntedā because of how anxious my mom is and how much I was held back and sheltered. At 32 Iām finally learning how to draw boundaries. But some days, no matter what I do, I cannot get away from my mom in this little house. She listens to my conversations through my bedroom door, sheās snuck and read my journals from when I was going through the depths of my divorce, she just...needs a hobby outside of trying to use me as her therapist. A role Iāve played for her since I can ever remember. Itās exhausting. No matter how many times I try to draw the line.
Despite the fact that I tell her that I need to work, she follows me and keeps talking. Yesterday was one of those days. Itās frustrating. I love her and my father so much but Iām a grown woman. This has been so hard for me to process and come to terms with, and realizing how much this has affected me since my childhood.
So yes, I want to be here to chat with you. Daily. Daily responses to messages. But Iām learning balance and boundaries and those things can take time.
All Iām doing is constantly saving, saving, saving so I can have my own place. I know itās within reach. I just have to keep going.
š¤ to everyone, all of you Planet Claireians. Thank you. I promise Iāll keep on being real with you. Thatās what life is about. Honesty. Love. Compassion.
Iāll be responding to messages today so stay tuned. And thank you again for your love and support.
