• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

So my mom is throwing me out. We had an argument that blew up bc I gave my mom the last of my money which was 1600 ( i told her to take her time giving it back. I truly need it back if i didnt i wouldnt ask for it back. I always give my mom money whenever i have it and she needs it. its been monthd maybe 3 since i gave it.

I put food in the house through my ebt.

Now after i got back from the store. I hear my mom talking abt cashing her check tommorow. So i simply ask if shell still pay my note and insurance since I can't do bc i gavr her my last. She flipped and said I do nothing for kids, im a terrible mother and more stuff I dont want to repeat.

So ofc i snapped back. I didnt call her names i just said I would have my note and insurance if I didnt give her my last. She said she doesnt care and i have to move. It all started with me asking for my money back.

So i have a job. I started today thank God but i get paid biweekly. My mom idk if shes gonna give me my money back she wanted to pay my note and insurance for 2 months...like she wants to put my money towards that instead of give me money to me.

Even when i bring food in through my ebt. Theyll eat my stuff. Not ask me or recently make food and tell me i cant eat it when I bought it.

So i have to go tensions are only rising. Im planning on just doing hotel living bc I cant stay here any longer. I wanted to get an apt but i cant do that apparently.

Idk why my mom attacks me like this. I've always helped her when she needed it. I gave her 900 without thinking for her school. Alwayd gave hrt half of my refunds. Just whatever she needed.
I take care of my own kids. I dont burden her with them. I dont talk down to her. I just dont get it. But i wont allow her to disrespect me when its not warranted.

I just need prayer bc im so busy and tired i can barely pray for myself.

If you get back together set up a budget. Pay her monthly or weekly for board and food. And stick to the budget. Throwing money at her here and there doesn't do it. Look at it as if you were living in a strangers home. You wouldn't get away with whenever you felt like it.
I hope you work it out. It's your mom. Don't take advantage of her hospitality.
Sit down with her and establish an amount that she can count on.


God bless you!

Do you have any friends who will let you stay with them while you find your own place? I'm sorry you're going through this, but I'll be praying that God illuminates your path of where you should go, and that He gives you strength during this time.

It may be best for you to move out on your own. Try finding an extended stay hotel. But why can't you find an apartment? That would be better. Praying for you. :prayer:
Im doing a hotel stay.

So. One i offered to pay my mom would tell me to keep my money and that I can save. I do help in other ways by bringing groceries into the house.

Shell tell me how lucky i am that i can stay and save but then do this.

And Im not taking advantage of my mom.

Ive always helped her. Always.

There are two sides. I was just trying to show a possible other side. Resentment builds up sometimes. It sounds like she might be upset about something else. A heart to heart might help. She might have a lot on her shoulders and feel you are too young to be burdened with it.
I'm just trying to help. I hope it works out for you.

Yeah i tried that she keeps lashing out. Again im not rude to my mom. I bought her gifts for Christmas and she told me to give them away. I take care of my own kids and dont burden her with them.

When i put them in daycare she wanted to throw me out.

So im not provoking my mom. Especially when i give her what she asks for.

Idk whats going on in her head.

No one is accusing you of those things. Could your mom be going through menopause? Something is eating at her. Is this a new mom? Can you convince her to go to a doc. Have you told her lately that you love her? Moms need reassurance to. Just suggestions to try and help. I know how hard that is when there is a wall but a hug and a kiss can work wonders.
I am praying.:)
