I struggle with my relationship with my mom too. We got along better when I was a kid, but when she went through menopause, the hormones triggered bipolar. Now when she's manic, she gets irritable and mean, so much so that I can't stand to be around her. When she's depressed, she can't get out of bed, but I actually get along better with her when she's like that. I know she is taking meds and doing therapy and working on getting better though. And I know she cares about me.

Sometimes I feel like I don't love anyone though, not even my mom. It's something I have struggled with for a long time.
