[quote=Anonymous]It sounds like you're still too enmeshed with your mom and her toxic dynamic. Face it, you won't change her, so you can only start in yourself and create your coping strategies that shut her down and create distance and boundaries so you don't end up in a screaming match. I went through this in my 20s with my mom, until I finally had enough and realized it had to be me who disengages. Know what your buttons are and block her from pushing them. You haven't explained why she has to stay with you for a month. If she's so toxic, what possible reason could you have to let her stay with you a month, barring some emergency and her having nowhere else to go?[/quote]
