    Relationship My Mom has PTSD and I can’t do anything right. How can I better support her?

    Up date. I talked to my dad today. He said he broke down and cried. It is all to much in him. He said the most painful part was seeing how she was attacking me. He said he know I didn’t do anything wrong. But he said she still insists that I am evil and out to hurt her and manipulate him. Who...

    Thank you for that. I spoke to my dad today and told him I don’t want to give up on her. She is a strong woman who went through hell and came out of it somehow. She broke the cycle of abuse and poverty I need to have faith she will realise she needs help and will seek counseling to help her...

    Relationship My Mom has PTSD and I can’t do anything right. How can I better support her?

    I am sorry to hear that it has been a difficult journey for you. I talked to a psychologist today and she said it sounds to her like my mom is too far gone and will never recover but will have to make the hard decision to seek treatment to help her manage it.

    Relationship My Mom has PTSD and I can’t do anything right. How can I better support her?

    I am starting to realise I need to set boundaries. I have always been the one that is the buffer between her and others. She has been suicidal and has threatened to end her life. I couldn’t live with myself if I did something that triggered her to harm herself. I know it’s PTSD but she blames me...
