[quote=Anonymous]My mother has always been a little mean but it has got a lot worse recently as she’s in pain and taking more medication. For example yesterday she lectured me on the phone about spending time and energy helping my best friend whose dh is dying from cancer. She’s also in a constant state of rabid anxiety not well controlled by any combo of meds. I’m about to go and spend 2w with them (they live far away) and bracing myself for dealing with it. Plus as and when my father passes, she has no one else and I can’t handle the thought of having to be her only support while she just becomes more panicky and more mean. Anyone else btdt? [/quote]
