Sorry in advance Mum if this bothers you, but I did want to say for everyone's information, Mum is painting this picture of herself as a really horrible mother, which is so totally untrue. Yes she is yelling at us more than she used to, but it's not all day every day sort of thing, more I would say, 2-3 times a week at the most, and she always feels super bad about it and apologizes! And for myself, I really don't think it's making my PTSD worse because I know where it's coming from. I know Mum is hurting about Brian and I understand that. I really don't feel upset or offended by it much, mostly just sad that Mum feels bad and I wish I could help her.
