My dm regularly makes fun of me, pulls faces behind my dh's back, over rules my parenting, makes me feel worthless.
I finally snapped and with my db's help and support confronted her and all I got was 'I'm sorry, but I don't know what I'm apologising for, I was only joking, I don't feel very well, I miss your dad (widow for 10 years) but mainly i was only joking.
I feel so low wih how she makes me feel. Worthless, lazy, stupid and a rubbish wife and mum. My mental health is poor, I have ocd and emetophobia (psychiatrist says it's a symptom of not feeling in control because dm is controlling) I am obese because I emotionally eat. Which in turn makes me feel like am a rubbish wife and parent and thereby reinforces her view of me.
How do I move forward?
Thank you
