Wow, I totally feel you. I have a very complicated relationship with my mom too. I am 23 and I still live with her. If it wasn't for her, I would be homeless or dead. But at the same time, she drives me crazy. All we do is fight. Our whole buidling hates us cuz you can hear us screaming at each other all the time. She has no idea how i feel and the pain and suffering I am going thru. I am so depressed right now, and I am just fed up with life. It is so complicated and then I have to hear her scream and b*tch when she comes home over the stupidest things. Yesterday I almost threw a plate of food in her face, she had me so worked up. A couple years ago, my doctor told me to move out, and stay away from her. She is not helping my anxiety and depression. My doctor even said that she may be the reason for my problems. I love her to death, but she is really driving me insane. But I can't support myself and there is nothing I can do about it :( I have to deal with it. She is never home, works 7 days a week and I only see her late at night. And all we do is fight. So I understand how you feel. It is so hard, the person that you love the most can bring you so down and make you so depressed. You just have to distance yourself from her for awhile. Avoid conflicts, I walk out of the room and just ignore her and end up going out with friends to cheer me up. Anyways, I wish you luck!! The key thing to remember is, avoid conflicts!
