Hi.
I spoke about this last week in support thread.d but things at home are constantly increasing hard.
Parents argue.. shout to each other.
Mum won't eat then, gets upset cries. Over exhausts herself.
Dad just leaves her to it or makes fun of her.
This leads to mum feeding in her behaviour as she feels she's not loved etc and doesn't care.
Dad then gets more annoyed.
Etc..etc..
Mum can get to the point of running out of house or saying "there's no point me being here"..
It's so upsetting 😡 😞 when this happend and just don't know what to do!!
I spoke to Dr about this in my last appointment, just got upset over it all and she was like she's an adult she can make her own choices and look after self. Me thinking to myself " well doesn't seem like she's always making the right choices.."
I know there isn't much I can do but I'm sick of it! Every weekend/holiday this is the case... its unbearable.
I love my mum, I would be lost without her (yes we have our moments) but her being like this, feeds onto my anxiety!!

    Hey @Invisible_me, thank you for sharing your experience with us. I can hear how the current situation with your mum is upsetting and becoming more concerning. It's clear that you care for her, but also aren't sure what to do, or what you can do here. It's hard to watch our loved ones in this way, especially when they make choices that are clearly not right, so your feelings are completely valid. They may be her choices, but they still have an impact on you and your dad. I know you mentioned you spoke to your doctor, but is there anyone else you can speak to about this, who can support you more actively with this? Perhaps another family member, a friend, a neighbour etc? We're here to support you through this too.
