Dealing with Verbal Abuse

 By Nate Feldman

My mother, Anne Feldman, is an abusive person.  She threatens me all of the time and insults me in front of my family.  She is very careful not to show this side of her in front of others.  I am going to have to, unfortunately, seek professional help to deal with this situation, but it is difficult because of the costs.  I contacted a mental health professional who told me even with insurance, she costs $140 an hour, something not easy when you aren't swimming in cash.  I will be using this blog as a way of communicating my situation.

Not invited to holiday events

By Nate Feldman My family planned holiday dinners and events without letting me know.  This was not unexpected, but it is unfortunate as I used to love the holiday season and now absolutely dread it.  I want to enjoy life and its pleasures, and on my own I do, but an abusive family can take away those opportunities from people.

More Gaslighting and Verbal Abuse

  By Nate Feldman Anne Feldman is not someone who can engage in civil dialogue about any subject without resorting to childish name calling and gaslighting.  When she disagrees, she says that I am "hyper" or "angry," and when I assure her that I am just trying to have a conversation, she insists that I am an angry person who is angry at her and the entire world.  This tactic is a way to deflect from engaging in the discussion respectfully and turns into personal attacks. Once the personal attacks begin, all bets are off.  She has said that "no woman will fuck me," and that I am a "fucking Jew," and that I am a "fucking prick," and that "no one likes me."  This type of rhetoric are the signs of a deeply depressed and disturbed person.  And, it's unfortunate that I am the son of a person like this.

Anne Feldman is a gaslighting abusive mother

Anne Feldman is someone who after cooking something will insist that we all praise it as "good cooking.". The meal will end, and she will say, "wasn't this great?" Or, "I made such an amazing dish tonight if I do say so myself." However, when I cook something, she refuses to eat it.  She has openly told me that "your food is disgusting" while making gag faces.   Now, if I said her food was bad or refused to eat it, she will say it is proof that I hate her and that I am bad and was always bad since I was an child. All attempts at defending myself or saying something I did was good is seen as me being hateful or hurtful. This is the unfortunate person I have as a "mother."
