My Mum

Postby SarahEmily » Sun Aug 05, 2012 1:46 pm

I don't know what to do. I'm going insane.
I've moved back home for a bit between moving houses at uni and my mum is driving me up the wall. None of my family know that i have been on antidepressants for 3 years now so it's not like i can just talk to her and tell her to get off my back.
She's constantly having a go at me about everything and telling me i'm doing everything wrong and saying i'm moody and stroppy, when to my knowledge i'm not being and she's just being her usual ridiculous self. Whenever she's in a mood she always decided that it's not her who's in a mood its the other people around her.
She driving me insane and i feel like i'm gonna snap soon, and i've run out of my medication and its all just getting too much for me.
I'm inclined to think that maybe it would be better if i just told them and then maybe they'd cut me some slack, but on the other hand i'm pretty sure she would just say i wasn't depressed and tell me i'm being stupid and what have i got to be depressed about.
Any thoughts from people about how they told their parents and how they reacted or anything of that ilk would be most appreciated.
I'm losing my mind being at home and if she doesn't cut it out i'm gonna scream at her soon so i just need some advice
Thanks,

:cry:

First off try and get back on your medication if you can, I don't know how it is for you but on the few occasions I have run out things have gotten very bad for me very quickly so I know how hard that can be.

I think you should definitely sit down and have a heart to heart with your parents, if they don't understand then you are no worse off but if they do then you will gain some very valuable support.

It sounds like this is only temporary so try and hang in there, keep yourself busy as best you can and remember being depressed is nothing to be ashamed of. Take each day as it comes and I wish you all the best :)
