I don't have a bad family, please don't think that. But sometimes my mother complains and it really gets to me. Earlier today, she started yelling at me because it was such a beautiful day and she wanted to go down to the park and sit by the water. She never told me this, and I wanted to do it. So how was I in trouble for something I didn't know about? But that wasn't all. She started going off about how she was going to have to make dinner and that would take up the rest of her night, like she needed an escape and hated doing things for us. I hated when she complained like that, because parents are supposed to think that, but never say it.
I sat in silence and she ranted about needing anti-depressant pills (which was just to be more dramatic, she wasn't really getting them) because she was a slave, chained to our house. How could she say things like this without suggesting a good idea to get out of the house? Tell me this! So I end up going to my bedroom, crying for a while, then coming downstairs, making dinner, and pretending it never happened. She was grateful, but I could see the hate in her eyes that she had to do it every night. This bothered me deeply. Could you please tell me what to do when I get in trouble for things I don't do? I'm going to help out more around the house, but that won't help the unnecessary depression rantings. HELP!
You are probably the only person she feels likes he can vent to about her problems. I know it's hard to not take it personally, but I don't think she is angry at you directly.
Have a talk with her when she is calm. Let her know this type of behavior really bothers you. Tell her you are worried about her, and she can come talk to you about things before they build up to the point she feels like she needs to explode. Offering to help out more around the house would be a good idea as well; even if you are going to help out already, letting her know verbally that you want to support her could be a nice little wake up call.
