my mom is in an abusive relationship. it is causing her cortisol levels to be high. she just sent me a message saying on friday that she thought she was having a heart attack. dizziness, nausea, cold sweats, fear of impending doom. i live two hours away. she is the only parent that i have left. we keep telling her that she needs to get rid of her boyfriend. he’s literally killing her. “he’s finding a place to live”. that’s just not good enough. now i have to worry that something is going to happen. she has four dogs and i can’t take care of them because my apartment doesn’t allow dogs. i don’t know what to do. i’m just now learning that she had this episode and she’s going to the doctors this week. i’m hoping that they can up her med or schedule something that will help. i know i can’t fix my mom and her problems. but i’m literally scared to death that something is going to happen. i don’t know what to do.
