How do I deal with my manic depressive mother?

Tagged as: Health<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (16 May 2007) 2 Answers - (Newest, 17 May 2007)
A male age 41-50, anonymous writes:

My mother plays dirty tricks every now and then to come close to me somehow. Like she would keep my things in a place i cannot find easily and would unnecessarily cause me to enter in to an argument with her, which gives her a sense of control over me. I have always hated her for that and she sucks and most of the times, i don't like to talk to her. Then the problem is that she is my mom, and some people in my society find it hard to digest that she could be nasty to her own child, which is the case with me. In fact she is sort of manic depressive and stays in groomy mood most of the times, when she is not fighting with people or working. How do i deal with her?

Frank B Kermit agony auntMove out, and keep as much distence between the two of you as possible, and continue to do so UNTIL she is willing to take whatever measures are necessary to make her be able to function normally. The longer you stay there, the more damage she will inflict on you.

eyeswideopen agony auntDo you still live at home? Since you are old enough to be on your own then I would definitely move to my own place if you are still at home. I would not visit very often, if she asks why tell her exactly what you told us. Nobody has to put up with being treated that way even by family. You might suggest that she gets some counseling but that really is all up to her. Good luck.
