Sometimes I have to isolate myself away from her because the minute I'm around her, she'll yell, complain how I'm nagging her, ignore when I'm talking or say very hurtful things, "Oh you have it so hard don't you?" After she said that, I stopped her- "Nope, I didn't say that. You're putting words into my mouth and I don't appreciate it one bit. So please stop. I don't want to fight with you today." She ignores what I say, never apologizes to me or again tells me that I'm making a big deal over nothing when I'm not.

I'm not being over dramatic and I know it. This isn't how a mother should treat her daughter. Now I always rely on myself because my mother was hardly ever there for me. She says she was there for me, but she honestly wasn't. When I truly needed her she was never there. I constantly felt alone and abandoned by her. Of course I can never tell her this because if I did, again she'd yell at me or say "You're such a f- drama queen!" Sometimes I actually hear her inside my head and I know all the phrases and things that she'd said to me from a few years back. Even from my early 20's. That's how much damage she has caused me. I love her..... but at the same time I think it's better for me to hardly ever talk to her because I hate the way she treats me....
