my mom and I are always fighting
my mom and I are always fighting and we both have bipolar disorder and somethimes she can get violent which can be physical and verbal like sometimes she will hit me and other times she will pick on me about how much i weigh just becouse I weigh 185 pounds which is overwight but she does not have the right to call me names. The thing is I can't move out becouse she's got papers on me saying that iam mentally encompentant which means Iam not able to live out on my own becouse iam mentally retarded. please tell me how we can get along better?

You should be having appointments with your psychiatrist regarding your bipolar disorder frequently.
At those appointments tell the doctor exactly what you told us about life at home and what mom does. They can handle her and put a top to it and be your advocate.
Tell them what she says about these papers and the violence and they can make it so she's not your caregiver or in charge. Sounds like that needs to occur. If you have a caseworker as well tell them and they can deal with the situation.
It sounds as though she's not in a good place with her own illness and the violence needs to be stopped. She needs help more so than you do right now.
The doctors can get you into counseling or even separated temporarily or put her in the hospital to deal with the issues and keep you safe. You need to tell them even if she's in the room or nothing can change.
If concerned about your weight mention it to them and get on a plan that works for you to reduce it. They may even have programs you can join that makes that process more fun and instills confidence that you so badly lack.
You need to stand up to mom with these people present. They absolutely must know about your home life as that's an essential part of treating your disorder.
You can't hold stuff back or lie even if it means they need to hospitalize you temporarily. The more honest you are the more you avoid any kind of issue with bipolar and hospitals.

aaaw this accualy breaks my heart...
im really sorry that you have to go through this.
well yea me and my mom dont get along alot either nd she doesnt emotionally and physically abuse me.
i reallly think you should call your mom aside for ex. your room and shut the dooor. and just let ALLLL your feelings out about how she really hurts your feelings and how you want to be close to her and want to have a really good relationship. That should be the first step to fixing things which is talking everyhting out and starting new.
hope i helped and i hope everything gets better !
if you have any questions just inbox me.
