In the quiet corners of online forums and coffee shop conversations, the dialogue about toxic mothers has become a symphony of voices, each note carrying the weight of personal suffering. It's a mosaic of emotions where survivors find solace in shared stories, recognising the echoes of their own struggles in the stories of others.
