Anyone else have a toxic relationship with their mom?

[Anonymous]

I feel so much better when I’m not around my mom. I appreciate the things she has done for me but there were still a lot of negative moments.

If I’m being honest I don’t think we really like each other. I hate being around my family. I just don’t belong

I have a very good and accomplished family but I just don’t feel a connection with them.

My family planned a get together but I just don’t want to be around them and I don’t understand why. I’m dreading it

Yes, my relationship with my mother is very toxic. She's a liar, a manipulator, she's abusive and she hates me. She calls me names, blames me for everything, she mocks me, and she made several death threats to me and to my sister.

So, I guess I know how you feel. Perhaps you should make an excuse to not to go the get together.

I’m sorry🥺 it truly does suck.

She flies in , in the morning.. I’m not ready at all. We already got into it on the phone.

I could really use a hug.. moving far away and not being close to your parents can be depressing.

Yes, it does. I would give everything to have a mother who loved me. :(

I understand you. How did it go? Did you make a decision? It must be so hard. :/

I would hug you if I could. 🤗 🤗

I decided to go and spend a day with her. She helps me out so I guess I have to at least spend a day with her

I see. All that matters is that you're comfortable with your decision.

No, my relationship w my mom was soooo good and full of love, she really cared about me, gave me infinity affection and love, unfortunately she has to go that quickly to heaven last year

I definitely did, I haven't seen her since I was 13 and I hope I never do see her again!!

I would love to have a toxic relationship with my mom.

[Asker]

Why lol? No you don’t

[TroyDT2]

Because my mom died when I was ten months old, so at least I would then know her.

We parted ways when I was 12. The last time I saw her was 18 years ago.

[Asker]

I’m so sorry! 🥺

Its ok, i feel same too, its just life telling you to move out and start your own life

[Asker]

I live in a different state. She’s coming up to visit her sister and wants me to come along with them

[LazerBean]

No, my mom's amazing.

[Asker]

Great for you

Yeah its a thing

[Asker]

But at the same time I feel lonely and depressed bc I want that connection but trying just makes things worse

[Opinion Owner]

I feel u girl
Sometimes life just doesn’t go how we expect them to be

[likelyOK]

If it makes things worse there is your answer, what you want is a good untiring relationship but you’re not going to get it from her I’m sorry.

[Asker]

@likelyOK totally agree. What’s worse is that my family is always on her side bc she’s my “mom” my feelings and traumas behind closed doors don’t matter
