My uncle and mom have been seriously stressing me out lately. I won’t go into too much detail but my mom simply won’t accept that she can’t live alone anymore, and is constantly playing the victim despite me putting her up in a top of the line retirement community - and my uncle, well he’s also kind of my boss and work shit has ruined what our relationship used to be.

Anyway my therapist really changed the way I look at the whole situation. It’s like they’re kids and they gotta be allowed to think they’re getting what they want from time to time even though we’re doing what I was gonna do all along.
