Is it normal that my mom told me she hopes i choke myself?

Well she'd get mad at me really often, and there would be the occasional "I hope you choke yourself" comment screamed from across the hall. Most of the time, I didn't do anything severe. Like Freshman Year of HighSchool, I had gotten something wrong on a Stem Cell worksheet and then didn't want to open the research article that she sent me, so she completely flipped out. After a couple minutes of yelling at everyone and throwing things around, she let out an "I hope you choke yourself" and slammed the door to her room. I can kind of compare these scenarios to Temper Tantrums.

    She sounds messed up in the head. Maybe she's got a mental illness or personality disorder, because as far as I'm concerned she really overreacted to all of this. It's relatively normal for teenagers to ignore their parents, but definitely not normal for so called responsible adults to throw hissy fits, unless of course they're mentally disturbed.

    Not to be devil's advocate here, but she was trying to help you and you acted ungrateful by not wanting to read that article. I would be hurt too.

    My mom says this all the time (in our language) too! But outta joke, and doesn't do the rest of that stuff.
    Like, this one time, I threw a fire cracker down the toilet, or the other time put a few DVDs in the microwave.
    And I gotta say, with all the shit I do, she has the right to :)

    The part where you didn't open up what she sent you, it sounds like she felt under-appreciated and hurt. I don't agree with how she responded but, if this is something she often goes through with you, it was bound to build up.

    Put yourself in her shoes. Try to make her fell appreciated.
