Ammmy:my dear. It is well. I am in the same shoe too just that I can't forget even though I have forgiven her. But we move and hopefully we correct their mistakes on our own children. |

Kobojunkie:Still makes you a deluded man,.old chap. Plus you are better than me, since you don't follow Christianity, so you should not be as abusive as us bad old religious people. You should be more mature But your abusiveness means you are very much like us. Don't be deluded in thinking you aren't |

Just get over it, she's ur mum n u'll have kids but u can never tell how ur behavior will be towards them |

Ammmy:You can't forget. It's your responsibility to make sure that when the thought comes to your mind, you expel it. Remember parents are like vehicles that transport people to their destinations, but when you get down from the vehicle, you find your way home. According to your story, she wasn't a good driver but now you have options to drive, do the driving and you will surely get to where you were meant to be. Bitterness is a seed of backwardness. It keeps you in the past when there are so many goodies in the future and today. Make Jesus your partner and let the Holy Spirit guide you. Love your mum even though she doesn't deserve it. Remember, you can only be different if you do the opposite of what she did. Keep reading your Bible if you are a Christian and obey its instructions. Be blessed. |

Ammmy:When you say you forgive, it doesn't mean that the memory will leave you . It means you decided to live a better life irrespective of what has happened and you are not willing to payback. You can't actually forget except your lost your memory. Forgiveness is a decision of the strong and those who believe in God's ability. Let it go and treat her well because of God . |

@OP I can't tell you how or when to forgive your mum. You are hurt, and we wired differently. The truth is that most of these our parents are annoying. They hurt us and actually think they are doing us a favour and end up realising it too late. I read your past comments, my take is that, no matter what, LET YOUR CHILD STAY WITH YOU. With time, she might not really have any affection towards you and may end up blaming you for some of your decisions just the way u blame your mother now. I wish you find true love and marry right BUT if doesn't happen soon, don't let it weigh you down. Some women get married and their lives get more miserable. I think what you need now is: - Learn to accommodate your mum and forgive her shortcomings, by the time she is no more, u will miss her. - Bond with your child, she will make you heal faster. - Focus more on how to develop yourself and become financially stable, no man wants to marry a liability. - Pray on your own (mother's prayer for you is also very important at this stage) and give charity as much as you can afford. Don't believe "this pastor say, that pastor say". Nobody is God's PA. Ammmy: |

Better do. Just buried a friend's mom today, despite all he did he wish he could do more |
| Re: How Can I Forgive My Mother? by Psoul(m): 6:44pm On Oct 13, 2024 |
Ammmy:Not forgiving her totally is what is holding you down. Forgive and love her with all your heart now she is still alive. She will sincerely pray and bless you and you will experience huge turn around in your life. I am telling you out of experience. I can't tell the experience here. If you want to know send me mail. Do it now you still have your mother alive. Failure will come with lots of regrets. Thank you. |

Ammmy:betrayal is not forgiven because loyalty is not negotiable, especially from a mother that is supposed to be the very bedrock of trust and loyalty,such must not be forgiven,let her go before God and beg our lord for forgiveness |

Geovanni412:Counselors are human beings like you so yes, he could also be dealing with his own trauma and so has the experience to draw from. ![]() |

What is there to forgive? She is your mother Honor and care for her as much as you can. Some never even have the mother! For you to move really forward, bury the past, and ignore the rough terrain. If you keep bad memories of your own mother, you will be the one suffering. At least she has come to see you as a man. Appreciate it and enjoy it with her. Anything else you are on your own. Life is not about your dictates |
| Re: How Can I Forgive My Mother? by SeriouslySense(m): 7:22pm On Oct 13, 2024 |
Forgiveness is the key. Forgive your dear mother. You have to take your problem to God, and put it at the feet of Jesus. And go for counselling. Your mother is your mother, love her despite her mistakes. Try to hold on to good memories of Her.' Did you see how life is too short, and did you see how vast the universe is, God is too big and your problems are too small. ![]() |

Ammmy:Don't forgive. |
| Re: How Can I Forgive My Mother? by Eniitankorede: 7:24pm On Oct 13, 2024 |
Ammmy:Ask her to pray for you to reverse the curse she laid on you. |
| Re: How Can I Forgive My Mother? by SeriouslySense(m): 7:27pm On Oct 13, 2024 |
you are still dealing with trauma, and rage. Therefore you need couselling and you need God. If you praise God and let it all it all out, by the special grace of God, you will be strong to forgive. |

Kobojunkie:Nice! I guess you have an idea what he should do with the hurt and rage inside him; maybe he can just kill the person responsible for the pain he feels to get even. Àwọn oní advice Ìsọnu! |
| Re: How Can I Forgive My Mother? by Kobojunkie: 7:38pm On Oct 13, 2024 |
placeofallure:Come on naw... stop being dense! Don't you see that if he is not already beating his mom or acting out violently towards her as is, pretending the problem is not real is not the way about it? OP needs to properly tackle his angst and getting some serious counseling and proper anger management can help him not end up murdering the woman with all that anger that has been building up inside of him. ![]() |

| Re: How Can I Forgive My Mother? by Nobody: 7:40pm On Oct 13, 2024 |
Ammmy:The problem is you believe her words and curses. You have to break free from them by believing that your story would be different. Maybe I can give a better response if you explain the kind of curses but you don't have to reveal those details if you don't want to. There's no point carrying hate in your heart. It may be helpful to understand why your mother became that way. It's very possible that someone did the same thing to her and then she did it to you. But that's not an excuse. She should have changed her ways. Now it's up to you to make the change and break the cycle of abuse. When you remember what your mother did to you and you become angry, let it out. Talk to someone you can trust about it if you have any. Write down how you feel. Cry if you need to. Start thinking of how different you want your life to be and start working towards it. If there is anything she said that's holding you back, change it in your mind. If she said you will fail at something, tell yourself that it's a lie and you will succeed. Replace those curses in your mind with your own words of positive affirmation. It will take time to overcome the words and actions of your mother but take it one step at a time and eventually, you will overcome it. |

Op you will always have the rough memory. What you need are coping skills and emotional healing to release some of the emotions. Also empower your soul and spirit. If you are lucky to meet a girl who is mature and spiritual she could help you heal with her femine energy. Take some supplements and herbs that support the brain eg adaptogens. In my opinion you are dealing with scars/ trauma and. Lot forgiveness . If at all there is unforgiveness here it is like the one you have against your self. Be gentle on yourself. Best o luck 🤞🏾. Ps: it is a main problem in Afro Communities. Healing hugz |

Ammmy:What are the "terrible things" your mom did to you? If you don't say it, it's hard for anyone to judge. Did she scold you for some things you did? Did she leave you malnourished? Did she use you for rituals? Did she attempt to kill you? If none of the above, then you need to check yourself. You're 40 and still complaining about your mother when you should be worried about your own kids. |
