In times of stress do the people around you support you or inflame the situation?

I swear, my mum is so antagonistic.

She just can't leave something alone, she just keeps picking at it like a scab.

I know they say you're in control of your own behaviour but when she does this she leaves me feeling so enraged.

It's not healthy to feel like this.

I've had a few antagonistic people in my life.

My late Grandfather's second wife, of whom he married some time after my Grandparents separated was one such person and specifically towards my Mother.

Sure, they would act civil when other people were around, but that act was only just an act.

You're right. It's not healthy. Your mother's antagonism is destructive. Do you have anyone you can talk to about this?

Just say Let it go, mum - it's not worth getting all stressed out over. Don't sweat the small stuff: SEE THE BIGGER PICTURE, WOMAN! 😁

I have a saying about the wife: there is not time so good she can't ruin it, and no time so bad that she can't make it worse.
