Hello butterfly39…Although it might seem like it, you are not alone in a situation like that! I too often feel abused by my son. You see, my son has a brain disorder and at times he can be very violent towards himself or me and verbally abusive. I love my son with all my heart but it I often times feel helpless as a mother. I have been dealing with his behavioral issues for seven years now, and it has defiantly taken it toll on me from time to time. But he is my son and no matter what happens I am still his mother. I wish there was something I can do help you feel better, but I can say that I appreciate you! Because you have started a discussion that allows me to express my self in ways that I can’t with others in my situation. Thank You, butterfly39!

Thanks for sharing, I know how you feel too. Sometimes I get tired of thinking a lot of things.

I feel abused emotionally a lot. I am what they call an empath. That means I pick up others moods easily. I am also hurt easily and people abuse/hurt me without even knowing it. My mother emotionally abused me when I was young. She would seek me out and dump on me because she didn't have anyone else to lay it on. She gave me plenty of complexes that way. I have had a couple of years of therapy for that. My husband is busy and he leaves me alone a lot and while he doesn't mean it to be it is emotionally abusing to me because it triggers my self doubt and depression. I am an extreme extrovert and being alone is not good for me. Whats your story. Let us sympathize together.

I feel so sorry...and I know how you feel right now. Even how hard we try to be a good mom to our kids, still they don't appreciate it.

I seldom feel being abused. Maybe I regard it as a tease. Some people just like to tease you for fun, actually they don't have bad purpose.
