I appreciate all of the care in your guys' responses.

In regards to moving out and her slapping me, this is the first time she has hit me in many years. She certainly is not abusive, please trust in knowing that I do know the healthy boundary in that. For I have experienced abusive people and relationships, even mildly abusive. I certainly could move out into my grandmother's house or into the house of at least three different friends.

Also, even though I'm an adult, living under her house I am still a 'child' as she's still taking care of me and I don't have a job yet. But i know my rights, if things get out of hand I will get out of the situation and talk to people for certain.

My mom and I have had a conversation recently, where she expressed that she did not like the anti-depressants because she feels like it's lowering my cognative abilities. I feel that she's come to this belief only because I've been interacting with the family more and being my true self. I am a naturally flighty and ditsy person, she gets irritated dealing with people like me. So I think she's more than glad to blame it on a foreign factor.

I talked to my T and we've agreed to extend my sessions for a period... I've always planned to wean myself out of anti-depressants once I've proven to be able to properly use my coping skills, also I do have situational and episodic depression. So we're going to talk to the pdoc and see if she thinks I would be ready to begin weaning. Then I could supplement with vitamin B-12, as I may actually have more issues with depression from a B-12 deficiency...

Again, thank you all for your support and kindness, it has put a smile on my face today.
