    Honestly man, I wish I could tell u. I think less talking to her/seeing her. Move out if u can. I obviously don't know the situation but sometimes that's all you can do. It's sad. But it's life. I have an extremely complicated relationship with my fam. I'll never forgive them for what they've done.I'm treated like absolute sht, like a slave, they won't let my finance (best thing that ever happened to me) around. I have to hide him so my dad doesn't get violent. I'm moving out this wknd in the middle of the night. Just can't do it anymore. awful people. So... maybe u guys have a toxic relationship. Not as severe as me. But maybe similar. Sever the ties if need be. I'm not gonna say therapy or anything. But try to just stay calm and talk with her... if u can. If u guys are always at each others throats, u need a break from each other! I wish i could help more! But it's something that has to come from u to make that call! Message me if you want to be more specific and maybe i can help!

    Since you answered on of my questions i feel i should answer yours. My mom can get mad over the smallest things sometimes and we argue a lot. But just remember that she loves you no matter what and things will get better in time.

    Make sure the issue is your mom's. Do you want to play video games all the time, and she has to nag you to get you to help with laundry, take out the trash, etc? Do you actually listen if she asks you to do something nicely? When my daughter was little if I asked her nicely to stop doing something, she didn't think I meant it. I made her watch a video examining why some kids were considered easy and others difficult. The easy ones stopped the first time they were asked. The difficult ones didn'tuntil the parent yelled. After that, I'd ask her once nicely, and if she didn'tlisten, I'd say, Do you know what the definition of a difficult child is? She hated it, but it worked. If the problem is with your mom, is she overwhelmed, overworked, depressed. Maybe say that she seems angry and would she like to talk, or is their anything you can do to help her. And remember, you guys are on the same team. You both have the goal of you growing up to be a healthy, happy, kind person.
