Compared to some people this might not seem like a problem but I really don't know a way back. My mother has a lot of emotional & mental problems, in fact shes tried to kill her self 4 times and spent most of the last two years in hospital. i really do care about her, but I moved away from the area 2 years ago to be with my partner and life seems to be so much easier to be away from my family and all the complications that they cause. I feel that maybe I am better off without them. So why do I feel so guilty all the time, I don't belive that its my mothers fault that she has her problems I just don't see what I can do to help. My fathers long since gone and I feel that I'm placing the burdon on my other brothers and sisters, anyone knows what I should do, I would apprieciate the advise.

CRN. Firstly, I would suggest dealing with your feelings of guilt. Other than as a signpost for dealing with inner fear based problems, I suggest that guilt serves no really useful purpose.
I believe that guilt is fear in disguise. By rejecting your family, what is it that you fear may happen to you as a result? How could your abandoning your family threaten your future?
