How can I handle my moms evil mind games?

Your mother has serious emotional issues. What she is doing is called child abuse. It is your dad's obligation & responsibility to protect you. He needs to stand up & tell her that she needs counseling & ensure that she gets the help she needs. It might be a good idea to enlist someone in the family other than your dad to help you with this. You may even need to enlist the help of your aunt. Perhaps your dad needs to talk to your aunt about how he has noticed your mother's behavior is affecting you. You can't tell me that other family members have not noticed the trouble she's causing or may have caused someone else in the past. While you may think this is something new & has only happened to you, I'll bet she's done this to another family member before. Ask around I bet someone is bound to know. Don't be afraid to speak up. Many kids end up having problems because they don't have any adult confidantes. Get your GED & continue to work to better yourself. Sounds like your mother has a severely low self-esteem problem, that she has to make her own kid look bad so she can look good. Don't give up. Speak to another adult. Good luck.

I will need to edit but I want to ask a few things just now. By Aunt, is this your Mums sister or your Dads? You need to take into account the fact that (whoever it is actually) might not be against you, but is just saying those things to sympathise with your Mum and keep her happy. You know how sometimes we agree with people just because we feel like it would help them in the moment? Also take into account that if you LIVE with your Mum, have done for 16 years (presumably?) and are only now getting wise to her, she probably still has other people fooled, and you need to be patient as it will take them a while to see through her BS too. You brought it all up so I'm going to ask what seems a really personal questions now. Why does your Dad stay with her? Does he love her or what? It's kind of surprising he's still there. Have you ever discussed you and your Dad going to live on your own? I guess that doesn't help you, but it's a complicated story really. The best advice I could give right now is to just try to put up with it just now until you can move out because it's not that far away. Most people's parents p** them off, very few have good relationships. It's good that you at least get along with your Dad. I would try speaking to your Aunt and other people she blabs to. Get to know them well so they know you're not the person your Mum makes out. Oh, and depending on just how badly you misbehaved, you might have to take a little responsibility for it. We don't know what it was.. But some Mums can take even pretty small things their children did very badly and always hold it against them. For all we know you could have made her life hell. The thing is, I don't know why you were bad years ago, but it could have been because of your mothers (admittedly) bad parenting. But even if it was due to something else, a lot of parents see a bad kid as something THEY failed at. They raised a bad child, and it hurts them and makes them ashamed. Maybe she can't get over it and feels the need to protect her parenting skills by making you out to be a wild child. Hopefully you have apologised sincerely, even though you don't do it anymore. I agree with the other person where they said that your Mum probably has some personality problem where no amount of talking things through will stop her unfortunately.

Geez hun, you're only a young boy and this is so unfair of your mom to be transferring her obvious depression problems onto you and your father .......... does your mother have a drinking or drug / prescriiption med addiction?? Does she eat loads of sugary and junk foods??? i'm only asking because abusing all these things can definitely alter a persons sense of well being, peace and sanity and healthy mind set..... what we put into our mouths plays a huge part inthe health of our nervous, immune and digestive system ......... try and get her to go see a nutritionally oriented physician or naturopath as it may simply be that she is eating foods to which she is highly intolerant ......hey, sorry things seem so blue but really and truly mate she sounds like she is in an awful lot of pain health wise to be behaving this way ....... ask her why she behaves like this.... calmly and peacefully ...... happy healthy people don't go around spreading grief and misery ..... ask her if she gets horrible tummy aches, migraines, achy bones, constipation, digestive issues like bloating, cramping, mood swings (clearly she has those) ..... all these can be symptoms of food intolerances. Blessings & peace 2 u and yours mate. ♥
