This post has been haunting my mind all morning! PLEASE get your mother to a doctor! You wrote that this all started with your having to care for a newborn sibling; postpartum depression is a problem of brain chemistry, triggered by the hormone changes of pregnancy and childbirth. Your mother’s distance and lack of interest in you are all symptoms of depression. She could be trapped in a black box she has no way to get out of. I know it looks like she’s lazy and just doesn’t care, but it really could be a serious medical problem.
