Hi, everyone. I'm new to this site and hope to find advice for my depression. I know were it comes from, so I guess I am at least a little lucky. It's my mom making my life a living hell. She is really unbelievable in the things that she does to me. I thought mothers were suppose to be loving and caring, mine is exactly the opposite in the sense that she really goes out of her way to treat me as an arch enemy, someone to degrade (only in public), tries to take away any good things that come my way ans so forth. I need a mother figure right now but my mom is persistant in destroying me. It really hurts, because it's my mom. Does anybody have any advice on how to treat this situation?
