I’m only 19F but I think I’m dying and mom doesn’t care

My mental health has severely deteriorated. I’m a type 1 diabetic, and suffering kidney failure. I’m undergoing dialysis, but my seizures have been more and more frequent. The only reason why I’m alive right now is because my siblings are calling 911, my mom won’t. The doctors send me home once I’ve stabilized but I’ve had 3 near death experiences when I’ve gone hours without someone calling 911. I’ve been in “critical condition” at least 3 times.

My mom told my family that I was faking it, so that’s the story they believed. It wasn’t until I had a seizure in the middle of a family vacation did they realize my seizures were real. My mom was also upset she had to stay back at the hospital with me when everyone else was going home from our vacation.

My mom doesn’t like me. She doesn’t like to hug me. She has physically abused me as a kid. Heavily. She would beat me with her glass ruler until I was bleeding, or use her fists. And now she denies all of this. My mom right now is just trying to make my life as cruel as possible while still giving herself room to say I should “be grateful”

My siblings all talk to me as if they’re preparing for me to pass on soon. I don’t blame them. My health is really really bad. I thought riding an e-bike would fix it but it hurts to even get up these days. Luckily my bike has a throttle.

ever since my illness my mom has been harsher

Why does she treat me worse than my brothers? I’m pretty sure my illness is terminal at this rate. I don’t like talking about it but my mom will constantly remind me that my time is very obviously limited here. I’m only 19. I try to forget about my health right now but she’s basically rubbing it in. I bought an e-bike too and it wasn’t enough. I bought the e-bike to make myself happy but it wasn’t enough.

AITA if i told mom I won't give her money anymore?

I'm 19F I live with mom who's [48?F] I told her I wasn't giving her any money either for rent, food, or any kind of bills anymore not after how she's treated me. She called me "ungrateful" and that "I would be long dead" without her help even though I nearly died under her care multiple times and when we were out of town on vacation she told my aunts she was frustrated that she had to stay back with me at the hospital during one of my seizures.

I don't really have anywhere to go besides here. I don't have any friends, family doesn't like me either because she fed them a bunch of lies about me. My dad is a nutjob. I don't eat any food she buys, so there are periods where I just don't eat (which sometimes causes some of my seizures). She could take away my electricity (she's taken my electronics before) or anything and I wouldn't even care. All I want is my bed, really.

EDIT: Important info I forgot to clarify
I’ve had at least 4 seizures within the last month. Each time sends me to the hospital after an ER call. Mom blames me for it, at first she told my family it was fake and I was doing it for attention. Everyone else believed this until i had a seizure during a vacation out of state a day before we were about to head back home, they saw first hand it wasn’t fake. My cousin had told me that my mom said she wasn’t expecting me to be alive much longer. The only reason why I’m still alive now is because my younger siblings are helping me and calling the ER when things get bad. My near death experience was when my siblings were gone but my older brother didn’t call anyone while i was limp on the couch. My mom still defends him for this and he even spouts the same lies about me.

5 cars honked at me today in a 30 mph road

i wasn't in the way in any capacity, there was plenty of room to pass me. Several cars did pass me but did so close enough to nearly hit me. I stay around the right shoulder too. It feels like I'm going to get myself killed the more I continue. JFC I see plenty of people with bikes out here but I never know what routes they're taking because we don't have trails here.

5 cars honked at me in a 25-30 mph road

I wasn't in the way. There was plenty of room to pass me. I even stay at the right shoulder. I don't see the problem, I was going 20 mph too and one car nearly turned into me.

At least 3 of those cars honked at me because they thought I was about to drift into their part of the lane for some reason.

Have you ever been striked by your mom as a kid?

..I still have a rash on my face and a bruise on my behind. I don't know. She rarely treated the boys like this. I experienced the brunt of it, and nowadays I think she's hoping for me to pass away from my current illnesses... she told my family she doesn't expect me to be alive much longer and i only learned this because one of my cousins told me. Everyone in my family thinks I'm the bad person who isn't taking care of my health even when I took everything I needed to take

Mom still treats me badly no matter what I do

I bought an e-bike so she wouldn't chauffeur me around anymore but she still insults me and thinks i'm going to get myself killed. A while ago I learned that she told her sisters (my aunts) that she didn't think I would survive until 20, I'm currently 19 years old and she admitted she doesn't think I'll make it to 30 either and that nobody in my family does, actually.

She was relentless, always striking me when I was a kid. I used to flinch every time I saw her until I was around 15.

daughter struggles

I’m 19F and my mom is so cruel to me. I don’t know why. She doesn’t want to hug me and clearly is waiting for me to leave her life for good. She told me she didn’t think I’d make it to 20 years old a while ago.

AITJ? Mom called me “ungrateful” because i don’t want to be around her

I’m 19F. My mom has treated me like garbage since I was born. She used to beat me heavily as early ad I was 5 years old. She’s mellowed a little bit but admitted that she does not care about me. She only does “nice things” for me to weaponize them against me. When i was in critical condition at the hospital during a vacation, she told my aunts that she felt some type of way about having to stay back to care for me. She hates me.

the rear hydraulic brake on my e-bike is causing squeaking.

The bike just received a bleed about a week ago from a bike shop, including a replacement brake pad for the rear brake too, so I don't understand what the issue could be. The squeaking only came about a few days ago.

How can I make close bonds with other girls with my background?

I'm 19F. Most of my life has been spent hiding in my room, letting myself go. Back when I used to care, I would often be rejected by my peers. I don't know why. I think looking back some of it was racism but even from other black girls I couldn't really connect. Now, I've let myself go, and even when I start caring about my appearance again, I still feel like a reject. I basically gave up the vast majority of my life to please my abusive mom, and it led me nowhere. I'm stuck and trapped, a lot of other ladies act weirdly around me. Guys either avoid me or treat me like dirt, especially lately. Don't know why.

was nearly killed by a 16-wheeler on the road i don't feel safe riding on the road

I did absolutely nothing wrong I was crossing through an intersection on a 35 mph road and the large truck was nowhere near me from their side of the road but then they sped to make a right turn and I'm terrified holy shit. This happened yesterday and I still feel sick from it

I can't ride my bike safely. I can't lock my bike up safely. What do I even do at this point. I'm done.

AITA for ghosting mom for taking my belongings?

I’m 19F ever since i refused to drive she’s tried punishing me further by taking my stuff until i got then back.

Reminder that i dont care too much if she has my stuff.. i just don’t want to talk to her. I don’t care if she chauffeurs me around or not. I don’t want to be around her. Not again. It’s her fault nobody wants to be around me. It’s her fault i got into a car accident. It’s her fault i can’t talk to anybody without someone pointing at the scars on my face and arm.

I bought an e-bike and now she’s doing everything in her power to stop me from riding it so she can be the one to take me to places.

I decided not to talk to her for a while after her stunt and she says that i’m “dead wrong for that” my brother also told me this.

I’m not driving and nobody can make me. It’s not my fault our public transportation and bike infrastructure sucks. She’d take my abusive dad around in her car but god forbid she have to do anything for me.

She went “oh don’t expect me to do anything more for you” as if she wasn’t already doing the same exact nothing she has always done my entire life. I’m the child she didn’t WANT! The one she didn’t WANT! She has done nothing but inflict pain and she doesn’t care!

why couldn’t my mom love me? why couldn’t i be a good daughter?

My mom and dad used to fight all the time. My mom would often get stressed out and strike me. Ever since I was 6 years old I did all the house chores I was capable of doing. I cleaned everything. I did my best to get good grades in school. It wasn’t enough. I still have a scar from when she hit me from behind and caused me to bleed with her glass ruler. People still ask about the mark near my right eye. I did everything to be a good daughter but it wasn’t enough for her. Now she denies all of this while also treating my brothers better than her. Even my younger sister doesn’t get this treatment. Why couldn’t I be loved?
