My mother is going crazy?

No joke, shes such a mess, I can’t even stand to look at her anymore. I feel like I’m becoming that kid from Running with Scissors, whenever I try talking to her, she starts talking about absolute crap that has nothing to do with anything… I don’t even wanna come home after school anymore, its like I don’t belong anywhere. I’m a girl in ninth grade, I feel like i’m to blame for all of my mom’s faults. She hangs out with my unstable aunt all day and they seem to feed off eachother’s negativity. I feel like I have to do something, what should I do?

is your dad in the picture? This is very difficult… because there is not much you can do, unless you are being mentally or physically abused…

Yes.. if there is now one else to talk to a school counselor is good. If there is anykind of abuse, your counselor is required by law to help you.

You have to remember… the problems of your mom and aunt are their problems… not yours. Oh you might get caught up in their problems…but they are NOT your problems.

Maybe she’s on drugs? Talk to your dad about it, or your counselor.

My dad is hardly ever home and I don’t really have anyone to talk to except my brother… but it seems like hes never home either and very hard to talk to… I don’t know if she’s on drugs but she seems extremely depressed and I’m scared to talk to her tonight, I can’t handle it… I’m not physically abused, just very upset I guess….

well… try to sleep tonight, as long as you are safe.. talk to the counselor tomorrow… stay out of your mom’s way. The counselor may be able to tell if you are mentally abused… sounds like you might be. But your mom needs help, and this is the only way she will get it.

Maybe your mom is going through a mid life crisis or menopause. You should also consider that this might be a change in the way you see her behavior as you mature and change. I though my mom was crazy when I was in 9th grade but since I have had a child of my own I understand her a lot more. Still you may just want to sit down and talk to her. Say things like, “I notice that it has been harder for us to communicate lately,” rather than “when I try to talk to you you go off on complete crap that has nothing to do with anything.” Perhaps you could even write her a letter if you think that would be easier, just make sure you stay close when she reads it so you two can discuss things. Try to be as adult about it as possible,l and list reasons for any claims that you make; if you say you Aunt is unstable list the reasons why you say that rather than just saying she is cause she is.
