[quote=Anonymous]I agree with everyone except the person who said is will progress quickly. Might, might not. My mom has been in the hostile and slightly paranoid stage for a loooooong time. If that is the case you can try to set boundaries. You first try to set limits with her and help her move on, but it may just turn into protecting yourself and figuring out how much time with her you can handle and in what settings. Sometimes you can find ways to redirect, sometimes you can't.

I would let her doctor know your concerns. Meds can often help with the anger, if she is willing to take them.

It's an awful road for some of us. I am the target of my mother's wrath and verbal boundaries only sometimes work. I have needed to step back more and more and make sure professionals are aware of concerns. We also have a geriatric social worker who assessed level of independence and need on a regular basis, but she tends to turn it on/showboat for her.

I hope your road is different than mine. I can't believe I ever had a peaceful and easy relationship with my mother.[/quote]
