Nmom not caring about my feelings about her splitting up with my dad
Post Body

I have been feeling so alone, sad and angry lately. I had quite some hard exams this month and four days before the hardest of the all, literally the hardest of my whole degree, my narcmom told me she and my dad where going to split up, but I wasn't allowed to tell anyone. She told me when I called her because she had been nagging that I don't call her that often anymore. I had never expected this.

Because of this news, the fact that I have been evicted from my old house and live with my unofficial foster parents now, I have been through the roughest exam week ever. I cried a lot, didn't want to eat, feeling suicidal even. For a fact, I'm 23, but I felt like a baby all week. Thank god I passed my exams, but have been really tired and emotional ever since.

I called my mom yesterday and told her about what her announcement had done to me. She did not show any remorse and did not only not understand why I felt so upset about her giving this announcement the way she did just before my exams, but also told me that if I had visited my parents more often, I 'could have seen it coming'.

I feel so done right now. She has never ever taking my feelings into account and this just feels like the next blow.

I feel so alone because I don't know anyone around me who has a similar experience. And I start to wonder: did I overreacted to their divorce?

So, could anyone tell me: did I overreacted and how can I get myself together again?
