I know this is supposed to be one of the happiest moments of my life, but I'm realizing wedding planning is bringing up a lot of suppressed emotions, as well as dealing with the major mental health issues of my mother and younger sister.
To make a long story short, my mother is a Narcissist and suffers from bipolar disorder and anxiety. I knew the wedding planning process would be beyond stressful with her and I thought I was prepared for how she would act, but she has taken it to new levels. In addition, my sister also suffers from bipolar disorder and within the last month she has tried to commit suicide again (3rd attempt I know of) and my mother and father sugar coat her attempts and leaves me in the dark. I was told she was in the hospital and my mother told me "it's none of your business what goes on in this house and it's not your business what goes on with your sister."
Also, I'm realizing the suppressed emotions of the childhood abuse by my mother, my controlling and abusive father to my mother and my mothers degrading text messages she has sent to me (telling me I'm a w**** for living with my fiance before marriage and others), it's painful when you don't have the support of your family and carry the weight of all the family issues in what is suppose to be a joyous occasion.
