    I type as my heart is breaking

    I feel so lost, low, trapped there is so many words i can try and describe how i feel but none of them is even going to come close. I feel crushed let down disapointed!

    For the past 6 years i've had to grow up with my mum walking out on me my brother and my dad every couple of months Just so she could hit the bottle of a week care free and then she would return home. 6 Years ago it was hell i would dread going home just because i would never know what state she would be in, I would dread the end of the month coming up (payday) because i knew i wouldnt see her for a week. But even though i hated her for what she was doing i would miss her so much it hurt! And when she would return home i would just welcome her back with open arms! There has been a 1 time or two where i have sat on my knees begging her crying so hard telling her to not drink no more because i wanted my mum back. I wanted someone who i could hang out with and tell my secrets too. I knew i couldnt because if i did she would only throw them in my face once she had a drink.

    times were tough and it all went down hill when she went missing for a week and we got a call from the Hopsital september 2012 saying she had been rushed in for an emergency operation as an ulcer had burst in her stomach. We nearly lost her and i remember sitting by her bedside crying and telling her shes killing herself. She hit rock bottom and she knew it! after she didnt drink for 6 months. I was the happiest girl alive, she kept me going through my break up with my ex. We were hanging out more going riding together (i bought us a horse each so keep her on track) I was finally happy that i could boast that i had an amazing mum by my side!

    Until last week! She off the rails. Never come home, Even on her birthday. i had booked her and my dad into My work for a meal at the Ritz Hotel in London. and she never even come home. She never went to see her horse. She turned her back on the family and her animal once again! This is an animal that i work hours under the sun to pay for! and leave myself broke every month just so shes happy. But what for? she comes and goes when she pleases.

    To Make matters worse, My SO is kicking me while i'm down. Blowing up on a photo on my facebook which was taking 3 years ago of me and guy friends at college. insecurity raged through his body the last 3 days while sending me abusive harsh text messages. Of all people i thought he would understand as the last 5 years he would always message me when my mum went off again to try and be by myside! But now .. his a totally different person instead of getting me back on my feet making me feel human again. his just kicking the dirt over me why i lay there helplessly falling into a rutt and i cant see no way out! I'm broken and i dont know where to turn. I feel so alone

    I'm so so sorry about your mom. I don't know what I can say but offer my love and support. But as for your SO, you need to be blunt and tell your SO exactly how he's acting. Jealousy is a disgusting thing and it can ruin a relationship. I'm always here if you need somebody to vent to.

      Agree with the above. You are a wonderful daughter for trying to help your mother out and it's really tough when parents don't act like parents should. But your SO has no business being jealous over a photo three years ago. He's still married for crying out loud, he knows that what's in the past is in the past. You should remind him of that, and remember I'm always there too.
      So, here you are
      too foreign for home
      too foreign for here.
      Never enough for both.

        No matter how much i try and tell him he needs to stop punishing me for what his ex put him through it will never get through to him.

        I deactivated my facebook last night because of the blow up and i told him that too. i was so mad with him i didnt talk to him for the rest of the night. We started talking this morning and i told him how my heart was breaking with what my mum is doing. and told me to be strong and he loved me!

        The out of nowhere my brother messages me teling me my SO is pissed with me and that his deleting whatsapp (our only means of normal communication) and if i want him to message him on facebook. I mean .. why delete an app that makes our life easier to connect. I refuse to communicate with him through facebook!

        I messaged him saying how angry i was his was doing this! i tried to call him and cutt my call off. What am i meant to do? im battling with the heartache of what my mums doing to me, and his making things 10000% worse. Wheres my support?

          I am so sorry hun! He really should be your most stable rock and I don't understand why he's doing this I suggest you surround yourself with friends for now and wait for him to come around... you can only deal with so much negativity at a time.

              So he's going behind your back talking about your issues with your family instead of talking it out with you now? Sounds very mature >.> I agree with Ej, your guy is still married for crying out loud! He should know better than this. Maybe something else is going on that's causing him to act out in this way? I don't know.

                so sorry you've been through so much. Did your Mother not go through Counseling ? I'm not sure what type of counseling there is for issues like this. But it might help.
                Have you had no contact from her since she went missing???
                For the SO, seems like He's acting like a child. He's married he should know better! Maybe he needs time for his insecurities to get back to the right level for him to think properly. You've always got us to talk with!

                  I am sorry about your mom. It must be really tough to live through that and now still have to be dealing with it again after such progress.

                  As for your SO, he is being a baby and a jerk. This pic has been on your facebook all this time right? Why now all of a sudden is he acting like a fool about it? Something must have happened that has nothing to do with you to make him like this. Perhaps, his buddies are talking crap or maybe his ex is starting crap with him that is triggering old wounds and paranoia? Either way, he is being selfish with his insecurities.

                  Surround yourself with good friends, ones you can cry and lean on their shoulders until you feel a little more stable and clear hearted. Your SO needs to come to you and apologize and explain himself. I hope you feel better soon.

                    I was also thinking that something might have happened that he hasn't told you about, that's made him insecure suddenly. I hope you can get to the bottom of this, eventually.
                    So, here you are
                    too foreign for home
                    too foreign for here.
                    Never enough for both.

                      Very sorry about your mom. Good thoughts going your way.

                      Your SO is being a jackass. That's childish behavior in every form. I know it's hard but you really need to try and not let him get to you. His insecurities are his problem and not your fault. Right now you've got bigger things going on. Let the jealous boyfriend take backseat for awhile.

                        I am sorry to hear you are going through this *hugs* We are all here to support you, don't forget that I agree with the last posts, perhaps something triggered his unusual behaviour, you said he was being verbally abusive, has this happened before? Because it isn't something you should wave off, no matter what the situation is one must always be respectful toward the other.. I am scared to give advice, but it sounds like two options right now - speak to him immediately and try to figure out what the hell caused that unexpected behaviour (was it a specific thing that triggered it, or was it just something that bothered him for a long time and he let it out now?), or try to distance yourself from him for a day - you both are really stressed now, discussing it at the moment may cause new arguements - sometimes a night sleep and calmly thinking things over can help more - you have enough on your head right now in order to pay attention to his childish behaviour as well. Pick what you think is best right now, I am here if you need someone to talk to

                          As for your mom, I hope she comes home soon Has she been to a psychologist? I am sure she feels really ashamed of what happened too, and understand that what she is doing is wrong. But sometimes people can't speak to their closest ones exactly because of that sense of guilt toward them, and because they are afraid they will be judged - thats why a talk with a person that has nothing to do with her, a stranger who is there to listen and help may help most? Has she taken part in support groups also? Just a thought.
                          And I wanted to add - I know no one could not possibly be thankful for all the bad things that happen to them, but from my experience so far - the best people turn out to be the ones who have been through worst. My SO and You are a proof for that! You are an amazing person, stay strong!

                            Your SO is being a huge fricken baby over nothing. Seriously. I can understand him sulking for a few moments or being up set until he got a chance to discuss his insecurity with you but this... This isn't what someone that wants a relationship does. Deleting your means of communication? Getting your family involved? He needs to understand two things:

                            1. Bring upset is OK but it's not OK to be a jackass. It's not OK to retaliate and it's not OK to be purposely mean. To anyone.

                            2. Once you involve family in your relationship they will always be involved, have an opinion or try to share their tale. Once you give them an open door it stays wide open.

                            He needs to grow up. If something else IS going on then he needs to discuss it rather than lash out.

                            And.... I'm sorry about your mother. Is she home?

                              Wow, I'm so sory to hear all of that. *hugs*
                              I really hope your SO snaps out of it and gives you the support you need. I get that he has insecurities but this is a little much. The picture is 3 years old and he needs to trust that you aren't his ex. He can't be doing that everytime he sees you with a guy friend.
                              I hope you hear from your mom soon!
