I need some advice, so uh, hi hive mind/followers/random people.

My parents are coming out to visit later this month. It’s been 2 years or so since I’ve seen them in person, and I’m developing a growing anxiety even this far in advance of seeing them.

Love them, not the best emotional history between my mother and I. I know from previous experience I tend to revert around them and get the confidence sucked right out of me.

It’s going to be nearly a week with them. Now I’m a fully capable adult, but I’m honestly a little scared/intimidated. Anyway, anyone have any advice in how not to revert to a scared fifteen year old as soon as I’m around my mother longer then an hour?
