Hi,
I've been having issues lately regarding my grandmother (93 yrs old) and she tends to cut me down while praising other family members, like "you used to be so pretty and smart, I wonder what happened"
Ok, I understand she's elderly and I love her dearly but it's been spilling into other areas of my life (her negativity towards me) like I am growing impatient with nephew & niece, my anxiety and panic attacks are out of control, and I then begin to have terrible migraines which reflect my outward disposition within the family and I need to keep it together.
I've had talk with my grandmother -she lives in another state and I am not accepting her calls as of now until I can get a handle on all this.
How can I keep positive and happy around the kids and family, any suggestions please?
