It started out okay, but my mom treated me terribly growing up. It was very hard for me to sleep in the same room that, for all those years, I just wanted to die in. My mom was like, "What's wrong with her?" when I first went into my old room and started crying and shaking and basically having a panic attack. It was sooooo lame!! But any how, I ended up leaving early, because she was getting drunk and talking crap about everyone around her. I ended up cussing her out and throwing food all over her kitchen that she'd just cleaned.

Just an FYI, that's not normal behavior for me, but she just gets under my skin and is a terrible person. She treats my younger siblings terribly who live with her. CPS has been to the house many, many times, but nothing has ever came of it, even though she was found as an unfit mother in TWO court cases!! The system is all messed up! It's very depressing.. I'm sorry.. I could go on forever about it, so I'll stop..

I feel better now that I'm back home!

I am very sorry to hear about your bad experience... Mother-daughter relationship can be difficult, but nevertheless, it is meant to be a beautiful thing, there should be this unique closeness that lasts for a lifetime. Unfortunately, there are women who are unfit to be mothers, and yet they have children... and abuse them... This world is far from perfect.

I am glad you are out of this situation, living on your own, and trying to heal. I wish you all the best.

I can empathize. I haven't seen my mother in years. Sadly, it seems that some relationships can never be healed. Better to sever them, try to heal, and move on with life.

It must have been very hard on you growing to not have a close relationship with your mom. I hope that things will get better in the future, as our parents grow older, they will need their children around. If you can't really stand being in the same room with her, she will probably end up all alone in her old age, and I don't believe she will like it very much.

You had a bad experience with your mom. While most of woman have a good mother-daughter relationship. they should be the one sharing secrets or ideas with each other. I myself is not so close with my mother, but I never experience something like that.
