Is it normal to hate my mother?

For about a year now, I've been so disgusted with my mother. I try to remind myself that she is the woman that gave birth to me and raised me by herself with two other siblings, but all she does now is drink and she has no job.

I'm always being blamed for something, and it's always her finger that points. We always argue but since she's never sober she doesn't remember. On Christmas she said she regretted having kids, and was so blitzed doesn't remember. I hate the way she walks, the way she talks, the way she eats and the way she acts. She acts literally like a spoiled five year old.

I suffer from depression, but she gives me a stigma about it. Like just because I'm only 18, I'm not allowed to have a problem in the world. I hate living with her but I can't move out, I'm not financially stable enough for an apartment and I have the shittiest car. It won't even start.

I can be lady- like enough to apologize and admit to being wrong, even if I wasn't, but she will never admit to be dead wrong and expects me to apologize but she never will. I have dreams where I'm beating her face in, and it scares me. I'm disgusted that I'm her blood. Is there something wrong with me?

    Yes its normal, I wouldn't say that I hate my mother, I just don't like her, she's done some messed up things in the process of taking care of me and my sister, she's unstable as hell and always contradicts her self. She told me once when I was 16 that my father raped her, saying that thats how I was conceived. The dumb shit she says is immature, but I'm doing what I have to do to get away from her and move on, so just be strong, just do what you have to do in life to grown and get out of your situation,

    Videotape her when she's drunk or high or whatever just in case you need it later.

    You know, it's not ok to treat people like shit just because they depend on you. Most people like her go out and treat others with at least a small amount of respect, and the bitch doesn't even have that for you.

    Totally normal to hate someone who treats you like that.
