My mother fakes depression to "train" me

NumerousIssues August 15th, 2021

She only recently admitted it, but my mother has, my entire life, faked depressive spirals to attempt to train me. Like a dog. If I do something she doesn't like, even something small like wearing a blue shirt when she thought I'd look better in red, she has a depressive breakdown to "teach me the effect my actions have on others" I can never complain without her screaming about how sad it makes her and how I'm giving her depression. I honestly don't know what to do, as she twists stories and play victim.

that is horrible. I am sorry she does that.
