Do we have the same mom?

No seriously I have one JUST like it.

The nice thing about being an adult is that I can leave my mom in the past where she belongs and enjoy life in the present.

I lash out at my mom if criticized.

I would agree with you, but my present day neediness makes me feel a little like a child. Thus the tendency to reflect on my actual childhood. If I were not so dependent, I might be stronger and happier.
