What do I do with this family situation?

My mom is ALWAYS bitching. ALWAYS. I’m so sick of it. It’s so hard to stay happy-go-lucky with a mom like her. She grew up with an alcoholic father, so that has a play in why she is like this. He had anger issues and I think he might have been either emotionally or physically abusive. She also suffers from depression and anger issues.

It’s destroying our family. We’re poor (because she won’t get job). –She’s bitching at this very moment again!– We don’t have $ or insurance to her help :(

Answer #1

I’m not sure how to answer this. I guess I can only say go stay with a friend until she agrees to control her temper. If she turns to abuse to get you to listen, call an abuse help hotline the minute you can.

Answer #2

Maybe check and see if there is somewhere in your area where they offer free counseling

Answer #3

it says your 21? cant you get a job n maybe move out or stay with someone else im not sure..

Answer #4

I’m actually in college away from home, but I am home for the summer for my summer home job. I’ve been babysitting in the summer for a family for the past 6 years. I don’t think there’s anyone I could move in with :(
