    We hope that today is indeed a happy Mother's Day, that there is much to celebrate and that Moms feel loved today.

    We know that it's a difficult day for some, that some have lost their Mom or the relationship is broken. Please know you're not alone today.

    To every mother that's lost a son or daughter to suicide or addiction, you're in our thoughts and prayers today. You're not alone.

    Peace to you today.

This helps. Thanks J.

I can't say I agree with you Katie, but the quote helps. :) Happy Mother's Day. I've been saying it to my friends, family, ladies in the church who feel so proud of me they could be my mothers, and my aunts who love me so.

Today my family had a breakthrough during mothers day. My family talked about my cutting which they only learned about yesterday and we made promises and good ideas. My brother found he was a reason I self harm and now he's a reason I need to stop. This website also helps me because love is the movement and there is hope.

The relationships are broken only because we have lost memories. So I tried to remember, just for this one day, when everything was okay. Maybe next year will be better...

We all are greatly influenced by our mother. She remains a great source of inspiration for all of us, throughout our lives. Her power and charisma can't be matched by any other force on this earth. A mother's greatness and her sense of sacrifice have inspired people, from time to time, to ink their feelings and emotions, in a number of ways. One such way of expression is through quotes. Quotations have just the ideal combination of words that can help articulate a person's emotions in the best way possible, be it for his mother, father or beloved.

The relationship between me and my mom is broken. However I wish happiness and peace in the family to all of the mothers and children reading this.

Mother's Day was hard for some, but not so hard for others. mine, was not as bad as i thought it would be. i showed my mother no matter how addicted i was to cutting, i loved her no matter what. she cried. hope all of you showed your mothers you cared on mothers day.

Mother's Day, a curse and a blessing wrapped up in false smiles and promises of better tomorrows when the sun will shine and relationships will again bloom. However the tree has long since been chopped down and will fail to return this spring, oh and how the earth rejoiced.

I know this comment is late... but oh well.
On mothers day this year i made my step-mama cry by tellin her how much i loved her & how much i cared & how much she has helped me through by journey to recovery. She is the only one who knows about my Self-Harm addiction. That was the good thing about Mothers Day. The bad part is for three or four hours i sat down by a baby willow tree in the puoring rain screaming at the tree... R.I.P mama(1966-2006)
I love you.

as a few others, i am also late in posting this, but i hope it doesn't matter. mother's day is hard for me, like it is for many. i still have my mom, but in a sense i don't. we don't talk, and after we should have i always drown myself in a bottle of booze or down a bunch of pain killers or hurt myself because i just couldn't speak and she couldn't listen. i wish i could give my mom the mothers day she has been waiting for for four years but i think its too late, just like this post. but i want her to know that she's special and i still love her,even though hugging her gives me real physical pain. i love you mom and i am sorry you still cried, even on mothers day.

My mother and I never really did get along. Though I didn't really surprise her with a gift this year, I put an insane amount of thought into it and she ended up being so happy she cried, when usually she's so mad at me she could cry. All it takes is that one step showing you care... Things truly can get better. I honestly can't remember when, but shortly after, I told her and the rest of my family that I hurt myself. And of course, her motherly love pulled through.. Even when I expected it wouldn't. We still don't get along, but at least we're aware the love is still there.
