My mum makes my life difficult (1 viewer)

[Anonymous]

I really, really am struggling with family. Mainly my mum, it's really ironic. When I used to play on my Wii and on my Switch, I was getting bullied at school but I had a good relationship with her. Now it's the opposite, it's gone so downhill. I'm still treated like I'm 11 years old and I'm turning 18 at the end of the year! I feel so old, and I've barely even gone out like all the other teenagers.

I struggle to get people to understand me as most of my friends have great relationships with their whole family and it makes me so jealous. Like honestly, I really sometimes just want to punch her but I will not be doing that.

Started playing on my switch again for the first time in years and she snatches my controller out of my hands for something that was so unnecessary and wasn't even from me! So narcissistic and toxic to me.

If you knew who I was years ago, yeah you would've said I was childish. But I'm not anymore and she doesn't want to accept it. When I went to my dad's I came out ill of covnifrnce and productivity. Now I've lost it all, I have exams and can't even reverse.

But oh people have it harder than me so my problems caused by THEM don't even matter to THEM. Fuck outta here man.

If I told you the full story, it would probably be 5 books at least. This is just the summary

Have you told your mum about this? You should tell her how you feel. Or perhaps tell your Dad if you don't want to confront your mum, just at least make sure someone knows how you feel

It's a good suggestion with some mothers, but I've tried to but she always comes up with excuses and ways to manipulate me - she's really good at that, that's the background I'm from; people have talent at this. I've told my dad and he gets it, but I have not told him I have been suffering suicidal thoughts since I was 14 (i'm 17 now)

You should tell your Dad how you truly feel. It's concerning how long you've kept those feelings for.

I have told him, I told him what i used to do. How I used to play games and actually have fun 4-5 years ago - and how involved i was in the gaming community of MKWII/MK8. Now, I have no motivation.

My mum is EXTREMELY good at manipulation - she doesn't realise that she is not the only parent. She made me ingrain these suicidal thoughts - and I seem like the type of person to always joke around and have a laugh, even at home - but deep down this is not how I truly feel.

I've tried everything, now on mother's day she had the audacity to take my phone and blame me for smashing it by accident when she did it to my old phone!!

Yeah honestly, I want to cut ties with her. I don't care what religion says - I can have this talk with allah

I think what she is doing to you is some sort of emotional abuse. Your best bet is to call social services or something, they could deal with the issue. As long as your Dad knows, that's good


I think now you should start focusing on yourself, being lethargic isn't good, you gotta try and keep getting your brain active (this isn't really to do with your mum but it's something to try and keep your mind healthy)
