since Y!A felt it necessary to delete my last question. i was being completely serious. can i get some opinions on how people would handle this situation. it's weighing heavily on my mind.
my mother is heavily into drugs. serious drugs. she lives several states away from me so i never see her, never talk to her really. i have very little other family. my step father is also on drugs, but not as serious as she is...but he doesn't help. my 18 year old brother lives with them and i think his experiences with them have royally messed him up. i NEVER talk to him. i'm 25, married, and i had a baby about a year ago. i think my family situation bothers me so much now because my son won't have any family, at least on my side. my parents don't seem to think this is a big deal. and for my entire life, any time i've talked with my mom about anything important, she just blows it off so it's not like i can calmly discuss this with her.......................

i had a dream last night about her that really bothered me and i think it's my subconscious telling me that i have some serious feelings about the situation. but, it seems ridiculous to just call my mother out of the blue to yell at her or whatever. but, seriously, with everything that i've been through with her for the duration of my life, i sometimes feel that i'd be better off if she were dead to me. then, at times i just get angry because she's never been to me what i needed her to be. yes, i've tried therapy and found it to be a joke. what would you do?

from what you are saying you and your baby are better off well away from them

Maybe you should wipe her out of your heart and see how that makes her feel.
Let her know that she has never been a mother to you and never will be a grandmother to your child. Let her know that you would love for her to be in your life but when it comes to her and your family (your son and your husband) you will choose them.
You have to let her understand that you are doing what is best for you and your family.
Wish you the best. GOOD LUCK!!!!

Start over with your baby fresh, BEFORE you get an ulcer or something serious and cannot take care of you and your baby.
