IMO I do not think it is right to tell someone that you had to go on an antidepressant because of them. That blame game is still there.
True, I blamed her. I did go on the meds because I was in so much pain over her treatment of me, and I wanted her to know it. But, it doesn't matter, that won't get me any better treatment. I am so angry at my abusive mother for all the things she did and I really need to keep a distance because I can't keep myself from saying things like that, which only antagonize her.

Now, out of guilt, I am going to be financially supporting her and she is still going to be just as abusive. I am sorry to be so hateful and resentful and feel ashamed.
