I am so very, very sorry that you are in the situation you described. It is heartbreaking and must be so difficult for you.

It may be that your mother is suffering from a mental illness. Mental illness often results from abnormal changes in the brain.

My father was similar to your mother in the way he treated me. Later I realized that he probably had brain illness that caused his crazy actions.

I hope you will find these Forums to be a kind of home for you. There are many kind-hearted and understanding people here who will be like a family to you.

I wish I knew how to cure your mother, but I was unable to cure my father. He is gone now.

We are only now slowly realizing how the brain can become ill and affect people's actions. I am so sorry your mother doesn't appreciate you and that she has harmed your relationship with your daughter.

Hopefully when your daughter gets older, she will see the truth and love you as she should.

Your mother is probably in need of medical treatment for mental illness, but sometimes people who are mentally ill do not believe they are sick and sadly they can make other people suffer. Wish I knew how to help you.
