My mother verbally and emotionally abuses me almost everyday. Please help I feel very depressed and get suicidal thoughts


A. Dear Client,

If you're experiencing emotional abuse or harassment from your mother, it's important to provide details about the situation, including any underlying reasons. If you believe you are a victim without fault, you can file a complaint under the Domestic Violence Act at the local police station. Additionally, you may bring the matter to the attention of the State/National Women's Commission, Human Rights Commission, or a dedicated NGO for resolution.
