what kind of "mother" blocks her GROWN daughter's calls?? I went to the ER last night with bad stomach and back pain (and a troubled state of mind). If I allow myself to be honest, I think I may be having stomach issues because of the anxiety surrounding my employment situation. And maybe deep down I wanted to feel like I was being cared for..whatever the reason...I told my backstabbing troublemaking sister I was at the ER and asked her specifically NOT to tell "mother". My "mother" always berates me for seeking medical treatment, whether it is an ER visit or a dr visit. So...my sister told "mother" I went to work after being up most of the night. I am a temp and no work=no pay. I tried to text "mother" a few times with no response. I got home after work and tried to call her at home. I got a recorded message saying that her number was blocking MY number!!!!! WHAT THE ?????? I am not really upset. Or sad. My "mother" is in bad health. She probably freaked out because I went in to the ER WITHOUT HER PERMISSION. she probably told her loser husband that I was "driving her crazy" and he probably told her that they could fix that by blocking me. I can't take her either. She was calling me multiple times a day. And if I didn't answer EVERY single time, she would DEMAND to know why and what was I doing that I couldn't answer her. I feel like I did when I was her "child". She was very controlling. She used to backhand me. One time she held me down by my mouth and I bit her and then she beat the $;?! Out of me. She would probably do it today if she could get away with it. My dad did the same when I was a kid. Recently I had a situation where he was in my face, screaming and his fists clenched. I have not been in his physical presence since then. So basically I am feeling VERY alone and unloved. I feel like I have none I can trust. Thank you all for listening. Sorry if this was too lengthy or if it contained any triggers.

You may recall I write that my sister and he husband were in an affair with my brothers wife. It's been almost a year. Mom last week asked me to invite my sisters boys to a birthday at my house for my brothers daughter. I was on my way to pick up the boys when my mom called and told me to turn around. Apparently my brother didn't know my nephews were coming and he was livid. I came home to a...

That being the case you have to protect yourself esp when you are so vulnerable. There are no easy fixes or solutions...
Love yourself and be the protective caring mother you didn't get as a child.... Only let people in who are safe and treat you with respect....
I spoke with my mother today. She "unblocked" me. When I asked her wth she "blocked me" she said she needed "a break" I told her how F$$$$$ up that was and how would she like it if I did that to HER???? I didn't get any response. Maybe I'll go for a triple lockout tonight. Block both parents and my sister.
I hope SOMEBODY takes your pain seriously. You should have another CAT scan. Maybe you're primary care doc or oncologist could better able help you in that area. The ER folks don't do TOO TERRIBLY much unless they admit you. I hope you find resolution!!
Big hugs, TC. I'm so sorry you're battling so much. Life does get easier -- right? You know that. But when you're right in the middle of the thick of it, it certainly doesn't feel like it. xoxo
