It is very common for people who were abused by their mothers to have a very, very hard time coming to terms with that.

For many years I even had memory lapses whenever my mother did anything wrong to me... I'd remember feeling angry (and then guilty about feeling angry) but not being able to remember exactly why... And when I finally got over that stage, it still took me many years to slowly but surely face the truth - one "little" abusive fact at a time.

Mothers can be very manipulative and make you feel guilty even for thinking of them as non-angels or non-victims.

It's possible that your mother was a victim herself at one point and tried to make you feel sorry for her - as well as responsible for her happiness and well being.

Keep in mind that no matter what, your mother is an adult and was always the one in the position of power over you. You and her were never equals and you were never in the superior position even if she made you feel that way.
