Should I forgive her?

I have a love-hate relationship with my Narcissist Mother who abuses me with her Authority power over me because I'm still under her roof. But now I can see she is regretful and trying to make it up to me by making it alright. But the days that I was in hell still haunts me today, and I don't know if I should really let go of that hurt and pain.

My mom was verbally abusive and borderline physically abusive. I lived under her roof as an adult and she stayed very authoritative over me. Yet I never hated her. She was who she was...she had good qualities as well. She's been dead many years now and I think back fondly of growing up with her. It actually seems like the good old days to me.

I would try to patch things up with your mom while you can. No matter what my mom said or did to me she knew I loved her and I'm glad she did.
