My mother can make me smile one moment and the next moment she makes me cry she flings hurtful words at me like I don't care for her or that I would starve her; she doesn't want to remember my good habits she criticizes me on my every word and work she doesn't listen to reasoning and always acts as an injured party she has a stomach problem she can't eat much but she doesn't want me to eat too? She doesn't want me to wear good clothes when I try to explain myself she says that God will see to me that I am disobeying her and Will punish me for my disobedience. She has total control over my life she doesn't want me to make friends or to even call them she wants total attention which I give to her but it is never enough for her. When I cry from her hurtful words she says that I am acting she doesn't realize I am being hurt.

I would love to know your age. It would possibly change my answer or at least alter it.

Although I am no Psychologist, it sounds sort of similar to bipolar disorder. Butdon't just assume that's the case. Whatever it is, she should see one soon.

Also, yes, it would help to know your age.

I also agree with the others,your age will decide some responses.

My take is that you should find a human,not an online personality,to actually tell about this.A preacher,teacher,other parent,friends parent,anyone who might have some constructive advice beyond what we can offer.You might need a safe place if this escalates.

One site I always ask people to read is this: http://joy2meu.com/Personal_Boundaries.htm It offers a basic bit of information about protecting you,setting a boundary against what others might be doing to you, weather it be verbal or emotional,or both.

Back to you!
