Please Help?!?!?Why does my mom never wants to talk to me?So i live with my sister, which means i barely get to see my mom. So to keep in contact i call her almost everyday but when I call her she gives me some lame excuse EVERYTIME and say something like " Im trying to do something ill call you back " " Im watching this show, ill call you back " And its right when she picks up. So i dont even get to say hi or whatever i have to tell her.

And to top it off she never calls me i have to call first. It hurts cause i feel like she doesnt like me or misses me. She never does this with her other kids. She has a full convo with them. Today i tried to call her to let her know im having symptoms of the flu and wanted her to take me to the doc. I called the first time and she picked up and said " Ill call you back and hung up" Never called back.

I was coughing my lungs out so bad i started crying. So a few hours later i called back and i finally got her to say hi but i say 20 seconds later she did it again. I got pissed off and said how she always tells me shes gonna call back but never does. She hung up on me. What should i do? Should i tell my sister that i may have the flu but shes gonna say "Tell mom because i have no say in it " Like always am i over exaggerating?

    Your mother is either Bipolar or Narcissistic. Stop contacting her. Your better without her. See if she tries to reach out to you. If she does then is it about her or you? If she does not reach out to her then she is not worth your effort. Pretend she died when you was a child and tell your friends and family that your mother only cares for herself and that your tired of trying and that she knows how to contact you if she wants to go to counseling.

    It's interesting that the first two responses you got both held you responsible for your mother's behaviour, whereas my reaction was the exact opposite.

    There's obviously something going on here and her behavior sounds very weird to me & certainly not normal in a mother relating to her child. Has she always been unable to express her feelings?

    I think she's treating you very badly in hanging up and not calling back but not telling you why, in fact she sounds less mature than you!

    Sorry, I don't know what you can do about it that you haven't already done, except maybe put how you are feeling in writing? Or can other family members talk to her on your behalf?

    Think of anything you did that made her angry. Maybe she's angry with you or maybe she's annoyed that you call her frequently. My advise: embarrass her at work and see what happens. I bet she will want to talk with you after that!

    Don't call her so often for starters. Maybe she's getting annoyed at the fact you call her everyday? Once some time passes then call her up and see if she's willing to talk.

    If you're able, try visiting her to talk about this.
