Toxic mother and her expectations of my husband

[Loud-living-dogma]

If it’s any consolation, I think there are plenty of other folks who deal with this. My husband’s mom is a lot like this – and we haven’t seen her in 20 years (since before we got married). It’s not a good situation, and causes lots of tension between hubby and his brother. My husband just cannot deal, she makes him literally ill to deal with her. I know that he wishes things were different, but she is not rational, very abusive, and plain crazy.
Good luck - it sounds like you have tried your best over the years. Can you get some counseling to help you set boundaries, and get an outside opinion of normalcy?
