Should i give up?

i told my mum tonight that she needs to be more supportive of my sisters who are anorexic but she got very angry, so so did i. then she told me i was self righteous. i sent her an email apologizing and trying to explain, but she got more angry and told me not to email her again. so i said fine, i get it, i cant talk to her about any of these things and that i wouldnt do it again. but she just got more angry. should i give up trying to talk to her? i explained that all i wanted was for us to team up and help my sisters. the rest of the extended family think she may have skitzophrenia?

The rest of your family believes your MOM might be skitzo? She could possibly be that way. But I mean, since your mom doesn’t want to help have your extended family help or any other close people that are willing to step up to the plate since your mom is just on a different page. Your sisters lives are at stake, you can’t waste time trying to get someone to open their eyes at this point. Down the line you might want to try talking or reasoning with your mom again. Your mom is an important person. Without her you wouldn’t be here.

I think your mom is just very afraid… she gets angry because she does not know how to deal with it, and as a parent she may be blaming herself.

Don’t take it too personal it has no reflection on you.
