EN- Your mother does NOT have a life and she really needs one. She has nothing new going on in her life so she repeats and repeats history.

What does she do all day? Any activities? Friends? Senior center?

Get her seen by a geriatric psychiatrist. She needs meds for rumination and depression.

If she wants counseling, she should see someone with credentials whose not a family member.

Look up Grey Rock as a technique for dealing with folks like this.

I feel like I was going the grey rock method. I was being quiet and not ccx responding to what she was talking about. I didn't say anything against her but I wasn't giving her a ton of attention either.
