My own mother was completely out of her tree and pretty much destroyed me with how she "raised" me.

My mother-in-law is a better person in a lot of ways, but she's got tons of emotional issues and won't seek/accept help. Talking to her is a huge exercise in frustration, not to mention often depressing.

I just give up.
