Family issues

[Guest guest]

I am having an annoying problem lately. My mother. Who has ballooned up

to way over 300 lbs in the past few months. Since her gaining weight and

getting sick from emphysyma (sorry about spelling), reflux, poor nutrition,

diabetes, etc. She has begun treating me like the worst person in the

world. I can no longer do anything right. I dress improperly, I am not

healing fast enough, (see past regarding my medical issues), my emotional

inability to speak to others regarding recent losses, etc. Tonight she hit

me with being a bad parent. Sure all my friends have told me how wonderful

a parent hell even my ex husband. Who also followed it up with " your

mother has gone off the deep end since she gained all this weight " . Has

anybody experienced these issues with their family members? My friends and

my father, (my parents have been divorced for 10 years), think it is

because she is jealous of my weight loss and that fact that I am determined

to be happy and not wallow in self pity. I have to be honest tonight, I am

wallowing, my mother has always been my only family support. I am an only

child, and not beign able to turn to her is really painful. Any advice or

suggestions? When I tried to confront her about why she has been so nasty

to me lately, she became completely irrational. Could it be all the

medication she is on? Do steroids really effect people this badly? Also

she is on hormones, pain relievers and anti depressants.
