I need to live alone but my mother stays with me because I lost my license and she needs to drive my kids around whom I have only part time and they are older teens.

I am 48 and my mother is controlling, condescending, critical, hovering, etc. she ignores me, never talks to me or spends time with me etc and just sits in my living room all day watching tv.

I am going insane even more with her living with me.

I feel like I am 10 around her.

I have visited family for thanksgiving and Xmas for my kids only but I realize that I am way too distrusting, paranoid, observant, aware, sensitive etc to be around others all the time.

I need to live alone but I never get to. And I never get to be alone with my kids EVER!!!!
