How do I deal with a negative parent. My mother has always typically been a negative person but lately it’s at its worst. Nothing is ever good enough, no matter what I do or my dad does its not enough She’s constantly picking fights over nothing and is nonstop screaming at us. Past 3 weeks she hasn’t said anything to me other than that I’m lazy and useless. I’m 23 and I’m lucky enough to still be at home to save extra money for a house and I have the money to move out And it’s at the point where I dread coming home and want to get the fuck out but I can’t possibly leave my dad and childhood cat here alone knowing that she’s a ticking time bomb and who knows what would happen What am I supposed to do? I don’t wanna leave my dad here by himself and have him deal with it but I’m also ready to cut her off completely because of the constant mental state I’m in. submitted by /u/mrannonyman
