This is sort of in conjunction with an earlier thread (Big Issues With Mother). Basically, my parents and I were having a family dinner, so I was sitting on the couch watching the Final Four, minding my own business. My mother walks into the room, randomly, and starts BERATING me without provocation, cursing me out, and telling me how my life could go down the drain if I go down the wrong path. I must have told her five times before, I DON"T SMOKE MARIJUANA! but she won't listen and continues to berate me for it (honestly, I have never smoked weed in my life). I was asking her why she won't just believe me and listen to me, when out of nowhere she goes PSYCHO and tells me I ruined her life before storming upstairs.
She always curses me out, and my relationship with my mother has completely gone down the drain. She always calls me immature, but I truly feel like cursing your kid out is as immature as it gets. I just don't know what to do anymore. I can't move out of town for another year-and-a-half, so I'm going to have to deal with her A LOT! I just feel like telling your son that and cursing your child out is way too far and that she has crossed a line I don't know if she will ever be able to get back across.

A lot of inconsistencies here. You were having a family dinner but you were sitting on the couch watching the Final Four? She starts telling you your life could go down the drain without mentioning marijuana and then you say it was about marijuana?
I agree that she shouldn't be cursing you out, but I think there's a lot here you're not mentioning. How old are you?

He conveniently won't tell anyone how old he is
In my opinion if you're over the age of 18 and you don't like what your parents say, move out. There is no reason whatsoever for staying with dysfunctional people.

It wasn't a dinner so much as a watch-final-four-hangout. The family was hanging out in parents living room before the dinner arrived when my mother came in and started to blast me about my life. She did mention marijuana, even though I've never smoked marijuana in my life. While I won't give out my exact age for security reasons, I will say that I'm in that late teens-early twenties time where the parent is trying to grasp onto that last bit of control she has on you.

I'm 68!............Wait for it............Dang! Lightening didn't strike. No home invasion just occurred. No flash mob is down the street heading my way. My wife didn't just announce she's leaving me. None of my bank accounts appear compromised and I just checked and sure enough, neither my computer nor my identity have been hacked. What a disappointment.
Do you get the point? Your posts bespeak of a degree of paranoia and at the age you say you are, if your mother is that unstable, as described by you, then as Djuna said, it's time for you to go.

You have your name in your username, David. It seems odd you won't mention your age given that.
Anyway, you say she started to "blast you about your life." What exactly are you doing with your life? What are your plans?
If she literally started beating you, that's assault (or battery in some states). But, if you're living in her home, I don't think you want to press charges.
I've been a member of these forums a very long time, so unless I decided to become a member of this forum when I was like ten, I can't be that young.
