Well… I think I would feel kind of relieved in a way, because why else on earth would my own mother be so painfully cartoonishly cruel but to add drama to the plot? To know that it was for entertainment, that it was scripted, that it was someone’s invention would be less horrifying than to know that she actually chose to behave like she did (and still does).
I am in a better place now and have healed most of it, going no contact saved my life.
