Just wondering if anyone can identify with this? And maybe some advice too?
My mum is frequently quite low but she doesn't seem to have any way of sorting her own mood out. I live a fair distance from her so I can only visit once once a month or every two months, but when I go I stay for the weekend. I also work in a fairly full on job and have 2 young DC so my plate is quite full.
But my mum somehow makes me feel responsible for her too. She lives with my dad who is a nice bloke but is a bit vague - he avoids confrontation at all costs. She isn't in the best of health but won't admit that. She isn't interested in ANYTHING - has no hobbies. Has a few friends but rarely goes out with them.
If I don't ring for a few days it's "oh it's like you are a stranger".
Anyone?
