Hi, I suffered what you are going through now when my father (victim of mother's abuse) was alive. I hated being in the house when she(my mother the abuser) was around. I would stay in their house house when my mother left us to go on holidays.This way I could cook for my dad and chat witrh him and there was so much love and laughter. then he died (as a result of her abuse he developed bleeding ulcers and cancer)and I slowly cut ties with the abuser.....I guess, this is thew hardest time for you but there are ways where you can take your Mom out of the house and spend time when your father isnt at home. Just small ideas that you may have thought of already

Anyway, theraphy and counselling is not available cos I live in a thirid world country.There are psychologist but they treat severe mental disorders.My kindest friends have askedme to just put it aside and forgive her and to go back to her.No one understands.I have read books and Dave Pelzer 'The It Boy" is good as again I know I'm not alone. Can you suggest the closest to do for theraphy ?
