I don't know where I mentioned it, but yeah, it's been hard. I know that people have had it much worse than I, and I've got nothing to compare to some people. I at least have both of my parents and my dad's girlfriend, but my mother has been putting up a never-ending battle for the past 4 years. I am constantly stuck in the middle and both parents deny putting me there. My mother is just having a hard time and she makes it twice as bad on everyone else. There are threads upon threads on PT's archives that involve me crying over something she's done, said, or not done. Our relationship has really distanced since then.
