My mother has pissed me right off and I'm fuming

ASD son, benefits, decorating, overstepping, gaslighting, abuse....
Long boring list but whatever

Join me in a rage

Let me guess

you live around the corner from her
use her or used to use her for childcare
holiday together

but basically despise one another?

Icecreamhelps · 19/06/2025 14:25

I feel your rage. I've been there. I got a text off my mum this morning 'are you working today?' pissed me off. Long story too.

Blinkagain · 19/06/2025 14:25

And one of you doesn’t drive and you live rurally

Decorating?

It’s hot, everyone’s grumpy, why choose to rage. Sounds exhausting.

Blinkagain · 19/06/2025 14:39

Op you talk about your “narcissistic ex” your “narcissistic mum” your “messed up sister”

I mean you do realise that you really aren’t forced to have these people in your life don’t you?

I never said you did say your sister was a “narc”

no stalking here. I was on your very depressing thread about your son and you liberally mention your narc mum and narc ex

BucketHatWoes · 19/06/2025 15:05

Cool , you can spell longer words than me

Yes it was a depressing thread and ho hum it hasnt got a happy ending,

so anyone else with the RAGE?

OP posts:
Blinkagain · 19/06/2025 15:13

Entirely self inflicted

your mother doesn’t live close to you anymore so why have someone you despise in your life involved in your son and even decorating!!

well this is where it gets bizarre

my mental sister has pretty much locked my mother up,

she did the same with her daughter

and I'm the mental one ?

oh well

anyone else raging?

I'm doing some great rage weeding in my garden

OP posts:
Blinkagain · 19/06/2025 15:53

Oh so another family member….

bloody hell, the way people live

Not hot here, wish it was

Windy with spitty rain

It's a fabulous day for rage gardening. Dump a bucket of water on the fuckers (plants) or throw the water at them while shouting 'fuck youuuu'. Also works when pruning as you snip the life away from them.

TY78910 · 19/06/2025 15:55

So what do we do here… are we all smashing our phones against the wall?

So really does beg the question …. Why are you interacting with your mother about such issues as decorating and your son.

CarpetKnees · 19/06/2025 16:00

Difficult to join you in a rage, when we have no idea what the issues are.

So yes, YABU to post for some sympathy without giving people some information about what you want us to be angry about.

Me. Menopause. Hormones. Chronic pain 600 million out of 10. Sick to absolutely fucking death of the utter injustice of being a woman. Can't sit outside because I have UV allergy. Hate the summer. Sweaty titties.

rainbowstardrops · 19/06/2025 16:03

Have I missed something because I don’t really understand your post?
Sorry if I’m being thick but it’s bloody sweltering here and I can’t stand the heat!
Where do you live for it to be windy with spitty rain completely missing the point

That’s fine. I’m just not entirely sure what you’re venting about but vent away! And it’s clearly a big deal to you.
Ah, west of Ireland. I’m south of England and bloody melting!
I’m with you with menopause and chronic pain sadly. Also didn’t have nearly enough sleep as have been awake since 3.30am because I’m so shitting hot and uncomfortable.
