I never got along with my mom because I'm more like her sister ( who she's constantly jealous of ) and disagreed on how our life should of been. 

She's not maternal in any way putting strange men before me and my brother. She even left us for 2 weeks to go clubbing and have sex because I kept scaring all the men off as self defence from the possibility of getting attacked. Moved us around for her own convenience and insulted the family when they were supporting her due to her disability. Theres so much more ofcourse but in the end once I graduated I did what she wanted which was me to move out. In less than a week I was gone and since then refuse to acknowledge her until she apologizes ( I know she never will ).

I've gone to counselling to try dealing with the after effects of the verbal and emotional abuse and now on medication to deal with the emotions/mental instability. But the best thing to do is to release all the anger to her even if she doesn't understand. 

It'll be hard to do no matter what, so for others what helped more when confronting an abusive parent?
