I think my mom is abusive. Advice?

[Anonymous]

My mom calls me a bitch and says I amount to nothing all the time. She says she wishes she never had me and that I was the worst that God gave her. She cusses at me all the time when she's mad and calls me names in our native language.

She also recently stabbed me with the house keys in front of my younger brother and called me a bitch. My brother then, called me a bitch, as well.

My mom tried to gaslight me into saying she did nothing wrong today and that I'm emotionless and that she doesn't harm me in any way when we fight.

She sometimes bangs her head on the wall or on a door when she gets mad to make me feel guilty.

She cries and complains to me saying I'm worthless without her and no one would care about me if it wasn't for her and my dad.

They are good parents and give me almost everything I need.

Are they abusive or am I just overreacting?

sure sounds abusive to me. see a counselor.

I'd have to hear her side of it.

reading below... she sounds like she has emotional or hormonal problems. dad is not like this, probalby doesn't stand up for you? So she wears the pants and releases the rath?

What she's doing is beating you down. I there is nothing positive, then she's controlling you. what she should be doing is helping you get to where you can live on your own, have independence and security on your own and build your own family.

It is abuse. Try and get help. Tell your teacher, tell your aunt or uncle. You need to speak to an adult that can help you immediately.

if you don't want cps to get involved then like you're just gonna have to ride it out. like they're not gonna change. ik this shit sucks bc i went through it but life gets better when you're away from them.

try to find someone to vent this shit to and something stay busy with. just ways to like help deal with it

You say “ They are good parents and give me almost everything I need” who are they? U talked only about your mom. Your mom is a psycho actually, I don't know how she is a good parent🤷‍♀️

Well, my mom and dad let me do a ton of stuff and provide for me. I mean, they also do some things that can be abusive but they could just be trying to discipline me?

[Elena_Stewart]

I don't know, you sound ok with what they are doing to u or as you said they gaslighting u

[Asker]

My parents tell me that there are a ton of people who don't have anything compared to what we have. All my friends love my mom. One of my friends (her parents are divorced, her dad is abusive and her mom used to be really sick, she's getting better now) loves my mom so much and they genuinely have a better relationship than I do with my own mom. My friend's situation is so much worse so I don't really think I considered this abuse till my mom stabbed me.

I would never justify your mom’s behavior, but u need to sit and talk with her and clarify things

[Cutegirl06]

She stabbed you with the house keys and you're asking if it's abusive? I would say it definitely is! Talk with a school counselor about it they may be able to help you... Good luck 👍

[Zestyassmf1997]

Nah. This sounds completely normal. Come on dude, are you fucking kidding? Of course she’s abusive.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

She's definitely abusive and your mom is mentally ill.

[Blacksnake285]

Move out whenever your financially able and seek some therapy if you need it

[Jmmmfi4]

DEFINITELY ABUSIVE SHE SOUNDS FUCKING NUTS

[RebelinSteel]

That’s abuse 101, potentially narcistic

[boggboss]

Clearly abusive no real question about it

[Anonymous]

Why she do that are u that bad?

[Asker]

I try not to argue with her. I just say "ok" and nod my head when she scolds me. She gets mad that I don't argue back sometimes and blames me for being emotionless and becoming a robot.
I really don't know what to do.

[Opinion Owner]

I don't know what to say
