Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Hooray for Parentals

My mom is currently in the other room, having some sort of psychotic breakdown while cursing my existence. She throwing stuff, smashing things, and she nearly punched me in the gut earlier. This all happened after my former-alcoholic aunt came over to try to make amends with my mother, as well as drop off a gift for my little sister. My mom, apparently convinced that this gift was actually some sort of insult to her, began screaming extremely rude and hurtful comments at her for the next half-hour. Tired of it, I walked out of the bomb shelter that had become my room, intending to calm my mother down and politely ask my aunt to leave, with the promise that I would have a more personal conversation with her later.
Instead, my mother screamed in rage in the background while I listened to her twin tell me on and on about how sorry she was for the past couple years. After finally politely telling her that now was perhaps a bad time, I turned to my mom to face down one of the largest shitstorms I've seen from her in quite a while. Besides being repeatedly called a loser and told that I'll never amount to anything, I was also told that in her educated opinion, my sleeping disorder was self-induced, and that her constant anger was generally my fault.
Fed up with listening to her tell me what a piece of shit I am, I walked back into my room, and locked the door.
Though this tends to happen every few days, this is the first time I'm going out on a limb to ask anyone else
What the fuck do I do?
This could also be a general friend/family/whathaveyou venting thread, I suppose.

all you had to say is that you were having a bad day in the Gloss thread, or something

tommy is like 13 or something
16
tSheri I've been trying but jesus it's hard to get her to change anything about herself
mostly because she holds this belief that in any and all situations she's right and everyone else is utterly wrong
my mom is basically the whole of D&D manifested into one being
It really is not normal to scream and rage and throw things on a regular basis

I really doubt that that would do anything but make the situation worse
aannnndd it seems that she's calmed down now
still gonna wait an hour before checking out the damage
i can't say i've had a complete day until i hit somebody upside the head with a coffee cup till they bleed to death like that south african bitch from The Power Of One

Sucks that you are in this situation, I had a horrible parent but I had my mom there to help get me and and my sister away from my dad. It's a bit hard to do anything if you don't have anyone in the family that could support you or take you in.
does the ol' trick

moving out is really the only viable option
I speak from experience very like yours except it was yelling without violence and it was every single day multiple times a day

Not excusing her behavior in the least, but is there a reason?
Also, I cant think of a worse forum to post this in, except for maybe 4chan.
Yeah I moved out of home as soon as it was financially feasible because I was sick of my stepmother, who could be so childish and temperamental about the smallest of things, and couldn't be reasoned with.
Hugs.

Probably stress, my father died in 2007 and she works as a substitute teacher, no meds currently, bad
E: Nah, SE's pretty cool and Anjin's comments are actually cheering me up a bit
