I need to vent. Not really ocd related
I have no one I can go to for this so I’m gonna vent here if that’s ok. I’m so anxious right now and I want to scream. This post is about my mom (who is technically my aunt who adopted me at birth). She is my biological father’s sister and from what I can tell she hated him. She said that he used to be really mean to her. I never met my father and never had a chance to get to know him. My mom is very emotionally detached and dry towards me. She has always been that way my whole life. She always yells at me, calls me names, belittles me, gaslights me, and makes me feel horrible about myself. But she always turns it around on me. Anytime I voice how her actions make me feel she again calls me names and makes me feel like I’m the problem which maybe I am I don’t know. She always knocks down my feelings and calls me a crybaby or whatever. Throughout my worst times dealing with OCD she never believed me even when I went into therapy she always made me feel like it wasn’t ocd that I was a horrible person and has called me very horrible traumatic things related to the themes that I have dealt with. Anyways, getting to the point. I am currently sick with could possibly be Covid. My grandma tested positive but I tested negative. When I told her I started having symptoms though she just told me I was fine and that nothing was wrong with me. My symptoms progressed and I feel worse today than I have in the past week. My grandma is doing much better which I’m very grateful for that but my mom has not once asked me if I’m ok. She’s so mean when I’m sick like I’m an inconvenience or I’m just using it as an excuse to get out of work which I’m not. I really am sick and it hurts to know that my mom doesn’t care or love me. And to be completely honest I think she hates me. The reason I think that is because she hated my father and has compared me to him. She said I’m just like him and she even hit me when she told me that (apparently in their childhood he used to hit her) I have never once been aggressive towards her. I wouldn’t do that. It breaks my heart that my whole life I have never felt loved by my mom. Recently I have told myself that I’m at a point where I hate her or hate the way she has treated me. She’s verbally and emotionally abused me my whole life and I don’t know what to do. I’m 25, still live at home, in college and working full time (on summer break though). I don’t have enough to get out and I’m scared to because I don’t want to leave my grandma or my cats behind. She doesn’t take care of them like I do. I don’t know what to do. I feel like she really does hate me and at this point I’m so depressed. I’m not gonna do anything I’m not at that point but I feel like sometimes she would be happier if I was gone. I’m so sorry to vent about all this but I have no one. I can’t calm down 💔
