I lost it, had a blow up, I'm done, I've blocked my mother from calling or contacting me.

She texts me ask me for money to pay for programs for my niece, even though I don't work and am on disability when my sister has a freaking job making a salary of 52,500 a year basically $25 an hour and she live with her.

I had no problem paying for my nieces programs this summer, but I told her don't text me about important stuff and she told me "don't tell her what to do"?

I blew up, she said "Did you take your medication today?" as a hurtful comment....she doesn't even believe in mental illness or take mines seriously or ever asked me if I've taken my medication, but she ask it in this moment.

I hate people, I can't handle people anymore.

I think you did the right thing by blocking her. She sounds toxic. If you keep toxic people in your life, it can cause you to start hating and mistrusting all people across the board. Hence the cliche term "toxic". Because it is like a poison, it can start to affect all areas of your life. High-five for having the courage to block her. It can be really hard to set boundaries and stand up for yourself when it's your parents.
Thanks for this!

I don't think my parents believe in mental illness either. They were told when I was ten to take to me to a psychologist and never did. I believe things would be different if they had. My mother is a trigger for me due to the past and present. I live five minutes away and see them a few times a year. So basically I've kicked them out of my life because it's not worth dealing with that crap. I just wanted to let you know it sucks when things like that are said, and I'm sorry.

Boundaries... Shame they are needed, but good for you for doing what needs to be done for your own well being.

I've heard the comment be made toward others ppl and it pissed me off. I let it be known and it's always made by one of my stupid family members that are clueless to mental illness. Now if you mention a medical condition their all ears abt listening and learning. I've learned to do as mentioned above distance myself from them. I think you should consider permanent boundaries.
