This may well belong in Survivors, but more people will see it here and I need all the help I can get.

My mother has just announced she's moving here this fall.

Now. My sister lives a couple hours away and has been working to get her THERE, largely because it's going to take two people to cope with her (she's 79, has several untreated mental illnesses and is completely unrealistic about what she can and can't do at 79) and sister is married and has adult kids nearby. I have....me.

But this is the first I've heard of her possibly coming HERE.

My mom was my abuser. What little mental health I have has been dependent on not being anywhere near her for the last 11 years.

This is NOT what I need, you guys. And my anxiety already was through the roof.

Help calming me down, please?
