24/f. My mom has been emotionally and psychologically abusing me for as long as I can remember. Because she is a narcissist, no one believes me in my family. First and foremost, I can't report emotional/psychological abuse to the police. However, it has affected me a great deal and has put my mental health in danger. She has stolen my identity, which could ideally put her bind bars for some time. But, if I did that, no one in my entire family would speak to me. My mom has BIG issues and I don't think jail is the answer. She needs to go to therapy. She needs to be forced to go to therapy. I have one family member, my cousin, who believes me. She's only 11 and she says that my mother is unstable and that she would consider the way she treats me as emotional abuse. I don't live completely at home. I have an apartment about 30 minutes away. However, I do come back home to see my grandparents, pets, and my niece and nephew. However, my mom does not stop calling me. She calls at all hours and told me that she has a tracker on my phone to see where I am. EVERYTHING is a problem for her. She is a stalker. The other day, I was at CHURCH and she said that she wanted me to leave immediately and that she was angry. Then, she made up some story saying she "KNEW" that I was with someone and just didn't want to come see her. I am not willing to speak to her until she gets therapy. However, she is dangerous, it seems. She is scary. She'll make threats like she is going to hurt herself. Pretty soon, my family will come knocking on my door dragging me out telling me that I have to come see her that I'm the wrong one for whatever I did. I want to go off the grid with the condition that my mom gets the help she needs, and my family, for the most part, gets help too. I am tired of being in such a dysfunctional circle. It has ruined my relationships, friendships, and even my jobs. These people are intense. If I don't answer, they WILL come find me. My dad is the commander of the city and he has trackers and will find me in a second. There has to be a way that I can do this legally... like literally go off the grid, be able to continue my studies online, and her to be told that she can't see me until she goes to therapy... like maybe some kind of restraining order. i don't know. Please help!

If you're living on your own, and people (even your family) are harassing you, then you can do legal action. You can take it to the court and/or call the cops on your mom to get a restraining order, and you can also tell them about your family and how they bother you as well. If your family trespasses in your apartment for whatever reason you can call the cops on them for stepping on your property without your permission. I suggest you also call a (relatively good one, do your research) mental hospital about your mother because it sounds like she has mental health issues, and they can take her in to get meds and therapy and all that by force if she is a threat to herself or others. (And you said she makes threats about herself) this is your life and you can't live it in fear, especially not of your family, so whether the majority of them "speak to you again" or not is invalid because you need to take care of yourself and do what's best. You can also leave to another state and change things if that's what you wish, also. But I highly recommend you take legal action, and call the mental hospital on your mother because they are the only ones who can force her. (With the threats existing and all)
Hope this helps~
