Welcome here. My mother is similar although more secretive in her abuse of me. As the first person said, leave the house and have little or no contact with your family. They sound toxic!! There is clear manipulation when she threatens to send you to the mental hospital. That's horrible! Your mother (and maybe others in the family) seem like narcissists. Your mother certainly seems like one - selfish, mean, self-centred and out to control. There is a lot of Youtube videos on narcissistic parents, especially mothers. I find the videos very helpful to watch as its very validating to know other people, like you and me, are going through similar experiences. Also there is a great book called, Toxic Parents, a must read! I hope this helps.
