I am so .
My relationship with my mum is very starined - I feel:
she has never supported me (or my sisters) fully,
leant on us emotionally even as children (esp me as the eldest),
is very self involved,
is emotionally manipulative,
and sometmes just plain odd.
I have posted before about her having toys her gp's can't play with, her suspecting my dad of being a paedophile and staying with him, and so on.
I am having a hard time at the moment, finally went to gp a fortnight again about pnd (ds is 3 next month), and tomorrow I have an appointment with a mental health team worker to assess my level of depression, I also have my health visitor popping in for a visit. I have lost some work meaning a drop in money which was unavoidable but worrying, and DP is working an awful job which i making him ill with stress, but can't afford to leave.
My mum called tonight and spent an hour and a half talking about how skint she is, her colleagues (in great detail), the bus station, how she has had her AD dose doubled, etc. She asked what we had been up to, and DPs job, but did not ask how I was and whenever tried to get a word in would get staright back on about something else immediately. Last time I spoke on the phone with her she told me the last time she had visited me she felt suicidal the next day.
I am so sad, I cut my dad out of my life, my mum is emotionally more harm than good and I really need someone. I hate that I have such crappy parents.
