Hi everyone! i havent posted on here much but i do read almost all

the posts. My Nada has become quite dangerous to me since her last

pretend suicide attempt. She has been involved with her married

therapist for 15 years. He bought a dream house for them she sold her

house and moved in but he never did. she was suicidal then and i had

her come live with me for 2 months- she went to the hospital and then

outpatient by me. But then of course, everything was great again, she

ended up paying him and his wife rent until this fall. Afer her

hospitalization my entire family rallied around me (finally) they

made a deal with her that they would buy her a home near her gallery

and she would have to go to therapy twice a week and of course, stay

far away from him. I became her power of attorney. When she was in

the hospital (in a coma due to taking a pack of benadryl) Tony, the

therapist, called her cell at least 6 times a day saying weird

things " honey you are in a coma i am standing over you, i must leave

soon as your daughters are on the way down, i love you i will get to

you again soon " this went on for at least a week, then he changed the

locks on me so i couldnt feed her pets. it was awful. She agreed to

let me get a restraining order against him and i did. It was very

cool actually. he had 2 attorneys, i had none and the judge was very

disgusted with the situation. Well of course after a few weeks or so,

she wanted to see him again. forgiving him of all his indescretions

(he asked my sister to get naked in therapy, he cheated on my mom

with another client oh and of course all the nonsense he put me

through when she was in the hospital) all forgiven! She met with him

or talked to him through a 3rd party and wrote an affidavit to the

court saying she never gave me permission to do this and now i have

to go back to court on friday to face perjury charges as well as Tony

is requesting to reverse the restraining order. At this point, i am

nc. I will be probably forever. My aunt and uncle are evicting her.

Its a mess. Anyway thats the shortest back story i can give.

It was my b-day yesterday and my mom sent me this dumb card saying

despite what i think she is doing this to protect me and she loves me

very much and sent the book " adult children- secrets of dysfunctional

families "

My question is, has anyone read this book? I have no idea why she

sent it. Does she think i am the one that needs help? Does she think

that her and i are both products of dysfunction and we would both

benefit from it?? I would like to know what its about and if any of

you have read it. Because it was a gift from her, i would like to

burn it.

I'm with you: FLAME IT!

She wouldn't give it to you unless it supports her motives; it was

probably suggested by her sicko therapist as a way to intimidate &

cower you. Any chance of reporting him to the state ethics and/or

licensing board?

I did look up the book on Amazon. It appears to be focused more on

adult children of alcoholics/addicts, and a guide to fixing YOUR OWN

issues despite those of your parents. Hmmm. In one case I read

randomly on the Amazonreader, the theme was to look to yourself when

you can't put your finger on the problem since " it takes two to tango " .

, you're the greatest! I never thought to check amazon comments...

He has been reported to the state- by several people. He also has several

malpractice suits against him. But don't talk to my Nada about it, she swears he

is being railroaded and she even gave depositions for him and lied about all

that she knew of these other clients.
