Struggling to maintain a relationship with my mum
I’ve had a very toxic environment at home in the past 6 months from when I decided to marry my partner. My family constantly were wishing bad on my marriage and saying comments like ‘we’ll see how it goes for you’ and my own mum saying a day before I got married that she’s glad I’m going. My sister who is married would stay over a lot during my wedding preps and would cause a lot of arguments, especially with the wedding. She’d want things her way, which I did take her opinions into consideration and let her have her part too as with the wedding planning. I can’t remember the arguments that I had with her but I do remember my mum interfering in these conversations with my sister and tell me to be quiet and get rude with me. I’d go to my room and feel crap. My mum would always expect me to do stuff for my siblings such as helping them get a job etc and even then I’d be treated badly by my own sisters.
Anyways, long story short, I don’t like speaking to my mum no more due to how I was treated but I feel so guilty that I’m not maintaining a good relation with her. She rang me abit ago saying that I hadn’t called her today, I just said I’ve been busy. Do I work on getting past this or continue taking my space till I feel better about it. I feel like me and my mum have not had a closer relationship so idk what to do. She probably misses me because I’m 2 and a half hours away.
