I’m tired and I’m gonna sound like a brat on this one

r/

So my mother is a narcissist I think I’m not sure but idk what’s going on anymore I still live in her house since I’m still in school and it’s honestly just hard. We are all depressed she doesn’t parent/ struggles to parent my younger sister who is 9 she throws fits, breaks things trashes the house etc, we basically live in a hoarders house 24/7 because of my sister. every time we clean it gets trashed every time my younger sister comes back from her dads and she refuses to clean. We have animals that I have begged my mom to get rid of cause she won’t take care of them fully (1 dog, 3cats). And I tell my mom I’m struggling to handle this stuff while she stays in her bathroom hiding all day and I’m stuck half way dealing with it all plus school and every other activity. But the main reason I’m making this post is because she doesn’t sleep when she needs to she stays up all night “trying to get stuff done and clean” and yet when she says she’s cleaned nothing has changed. Today I said I was tired and she said and I quote “what do you have to be tired of you get to sleep at night “ and something in me just snapped idk anymore I love my mom but I’m exhausted and tired and I hate being guilted for being tired. I feel like I’m sounding bratty but I’m exhausted and I’m tired of the slide comments she makes and I wish she would just listen idk guys I need advice on how to deal with this it’s all so much. (Sorry this is a lot like a vent I just feel like some background was needed)
