Why did my mum abandon me in a psychiatric unit?!


Question: I was neglected as a child, went on antidepressants age 16. I ended up uncovering all sorts when talking to my psychologist and admitted to a psychiatric ward. havent spoken or seen her since then She now lives in spain but wont answer the phone, I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2006, she has it too. She just seems to have severed all ties with me. everyone says keep trying to get in touch.

Be kind to yourself and get on with your life. Find people who want to be loved and love you. Study, work, eat right, exercise and be good to others. Become a happy and confident person. Do not take crap from those who hurt and abuse you. Most of all do not waste your time seeking something that isn't there - like mother love. Take care and I wish you the best. XXXX

Sounds like she simply is not the parenting kind of person. Perhaps she is completely at a loss at how to deal with a child, regardless of any problems that child may have. She also may have issues of her own that she has never worked through.

Unless you feel a personal need at this time to "connect", deal with your own issues first until you are more confident and comfortable with yourself. Then, when you feel more ready, simply show up in Spain (or wherever) and ask in person.

No one could answer this question but her. Sounds like you are better off without her. You can't choose your family, but you can choose who else you have in your life.

she was never ready to give birth to ya, in other words u were mistake.

If she's not answering the phone, you might want to look elsewhere for answers and companionship. I don't mean to be flippant--if she's avoiding contact, she may be unhelpful if you did contact her. OTOH, there are lots of other people out there who would be great to spend time with, and to bounce things off of. Everyone needs companionship, and you don't always find it in your blood relatives.

I'm sorry this has happened to you , everyone needs there mom especially when you are dealing with ms i think she loves you but does not know how to deal with her own issues and illness and because of that she choosing to shut down but you cannot blame yourself if you have made the effort to renew the bond then it is on her you can look in the mirror and say to your self i did everything i should she on the other hand is running from her prob and she can run all she wants but she cant run from her own thoughts and I'm sure its eating at her, you should be proud that you have chosen to seek out help and there is no reason to be ashamed about being depressed there are millions in this world who deal with it have you tried a ms support group i think they also have some on line and sometimes it can be helpful to talk to others good luck i will pray for you both

She doesn't know how to handle it. She obviously has her own issues. Make yourself available, when she is ready to be in your life she will. Until then focus on your life and the things that make you happy. If she never contacts you, it is her loss. But you have to focus on you.

U r a nasty little kid and noone loves u however i will make love to and for you only if u get me big bag of paotao chups.

Sounds to me that she is just not strong enough to handle what has happened. I pray God forgives her for leaving you. I pray God be with you and help you with your illnesses. I know it cannot be easy for you. There are people out there that will treat you with love and respect. Don't give up ok.

Take care of yourself my darling stinkydog

Since you were neglected as a child, it wouldn't surprise me if your mother had a mental breakdown. She probably felt that she was unable to care for you. Hopefully she is getting treatment now and will someday be ready to let you know why she did what she did. I know it is very painful for you now. It is important to let your pain out so that you don't get more depressed.
