I feel guilty about my parents, because I can't help them out more. Plus, I moved out of my moms house when she was sick so I could be with my boyfriend. Now I'm scared of karma!!!! I love my parents, but I love my boyfriend too. He's the only person that keeps me sane. But I just constantly feel guilty living with him.

Tina you can be a great daughter and an independent person as well.....you can love and support her in many ways other than just living with her. Call and say hi often. Write little notes and send them in the mail saying your thinking of her....Moms love that. Keep yourslef in touch with her and show her you care and that your happy and enjoying your life. Most Moms and Dads for that matter want thier children to grow up to be Happy...so tell them you are tell them you care tell them you think of them often and if you can squeeze a visit in every now and then you are being a great daughter.
Dont feel guilty to be happy. Thats not what your parents would want from you! The lesson on assertive behaivor is a great one for you to really absorb. Happy Times to you Dodger |

it sounds like your experiencing more than guilt. it sounds like fear, too.
maybe you can write out what you are afraid of. then look at the list and turn the negatives into positives. if your list is really long--and you don't want to do this for each fear: you can identify themes and turn these negatives into positives.  also, i'm thinkin', even though you love your boyfriend, maybe it's not good for you to be there right now  . maybe there are other reasons, besides being away from your parents, that make you uncomfortable with your living situation.this is tough. i've moved around so much, people who've known me for years think i'll never stay still. a lot of my difficulty in considering a home has been complicated by my relationship with my parents  --so i really feel for ya. i haven't figured it out--but i'm looking to move forward  and not back. . . that much is clear .i hope this helps!

I have moved over 6 times in the 20 years I've been alive. I know what its like to move around. I think that may have somthing to do with my anxiety. Thank you for the advice. but I just really miss my family.
