This morning my mother and I got into a heated argument. I dont want to go into detail but it had to with finances. I contribute weekly to the house and I'm working, couldnt do so this week as i’ve spent a lot of money. Ive also got my own debt that im paying off, from school. I’m 24. My mother has been in a very emotional state as of lately, and i think it partially has to do with her being lonely. She doesn’t have many friends, shes single and i believe she’s still not over the fact that my dad left her 20 years ago. Shes currently 54 years old. I try my best to relate with her, but i’ve been isolating myself away from her recently due to her over emotional state. She tends to lash out on me, over the slightest things.

Now this morning after stating that i wont be able to contribute she became very angry, and began to lash out. I’m working hard on getting my own place, but right now I have to do my best whilst living with her. We got into a heated argument and she began to reign curses on me, talking about how i will suffer in this life, I will never see peace, saying that i’m dead to her, and so on. I was honestly amazed, i dont take curses lightly. At this point, im just in a state of confusion. I genuinely think my mother is depressed and I want her to get help but at the same time I dont want to have anything to do with her. Her behaviour is driving me further and further away from her, and I cant cope because its affecting my mental state.

If any body can relate please share your stories or advise on what I can do. Those curses have really cut me deep and even after apologising to her for arguing i’m not at peace. Mother to child curses are serious, I'm honestly trying my best.
