And eventually addiction is going to start kicking our butt.

It doesn't have to be, but it can be.
It can go to unkindness if a mother has that capacity to punish you for not being like her, for not building her resume, for not being the daughter she needs to make herself look good.
She might punish you.
Some mothers won't become punitive.
They become martyrs.
Give me an example.
poor me, my daughter doesn't X, Y, or Z. And then she needs you as the daughter to make her feel better.
Or she goes to complain about you to everyone else in the household or to her own mother, or you hear her complain about you with her friends.
That's a really tough spot for a daughter to find herself that if I am not my mother's twin, then she's unhappy.
Right.
And I think that for daughters who had mothers that needed a best friend, and rather than go get her own best friend, she used you.
You became her best friend.
She needed you to hold her secrets.
She needed you to fluff up her well-being, make her feel good.
A lot of times women with mothers like that develop a certain avoidant approach to life because they've been used.
So they don't necessarily do some of the things that a more anxiously attached person would do who's hungry for more of mom.
