Sup terpers. So yeah my mom is a lifelong high functioning alcoholic. Raised me as a hardcore feminist hippie single-mom. She fits into every one of the TRP stereotypes just about as well as you could imagine.
Anyways here's the problem. She sucks. Unlike my alpha bio-dad who gives me quality objective advice (lift, find your mission and pursue it), she really only gives me advice that furthers her own narcissistic interests (be a big hot shot attorney so that you can buy me a house!). Meanwhile she's poor, has been married and divorced 3 times, doesn't assist me in anyway financially. I paid my own way through undergrad and am currently on scholarship/grants/loans for law school. I'm on the university's health care plan, have my own car, apartment, etc. She pays for my phone bill actually, so there's that.
After swallowing the pill 4+ months ago, I just can't take it anymore. I've cut her off. Told her this morning that our relationship is over and that she should contact me if she gets into treatment for her alcoholism. Any of you guys had to do this? It sucks, I'm pretty sad about having to cut her out but I'm not sure what else to do. Thoughts?
Some background info if this seems drastic, she used to black out and beat the shit outta me when I was too young to fight back (age 7-11 or so). She pumped me full of all the blue-pill crap we've all since had to reject. She divorce raped my bio dad when I was 3 and took me literally to the opposite side of the US (born in Washington St., we moved to FL). The whole nine yards.
