“I’ve become a bitter person and I’m resigned to that fact. I can’t change my circumstances, so why try to change who I’ve become as a result of them?”
― I'm Glad My Mom Died
― I'm Glad My Mom Died
“I'm trying every day to face myself. The results vary, but the attempts are consistent.”
― I'm Glad My Mom Died
― I'm Glad My Mom Died
“Maybe I feel this way now because I viewed my mom that way for so long. I had her up on a pedestal, and I know how detrimental that pedestal was to my well-being and life. That pedestal kept me stuck, emotionally stunted, living in fear, dependent, in a near constant state of emotional pain and without the tools to even identify that pain let alone deal with it. My mom didn't deserve her pedestal. She was a narcissist. She refused to admit she had any problems, despite how destructive those problems were to our entire family.”
― I'm Glad My Mom Died
― I'm Glad My Mom Died
“Mom didn’t get better. But I will.”
― I'm Glad My Mom Died
― I'm Glad My Mom Died
“Through writing, I feel power for maybe the first time in my life. I don’t have to say somebody else’s words. I can write my own. I can be myself for once. I like the privacy of it. Nobody’s watching. Nobody’s judging. Nobody’s weighing in. No casting directors or agents or managers or directors or Mom. Just me and the page. Writing is the opposite of performing to me. Performing feels inherently fake. Writing feels inherently real.”
― I'm Glad My Mom Died
