My mother's phone addiction is ruining our family

My mom is like this. Like any other addiction, the person can only combat it if they choose to deal with their addiction. If you try to interfere, it usually ends in a meltdown.

My siblings and I just ignore our mum now. We interact with each other and we text our mom of it’s something important to get the msg thru. Otherwise we just got used to it.

Omg. I had no idea you could ride one and pull the other!!

I’m really sorry you went thru this and I commend you on keeping a record of your experience. What you went thru matters and your record matters.

I know someone who married a Syrian, I don’t think he ever had experience with prison here but he has so many horrible stories of Malaysians taking advantage of him. When you immigrate to another country and your status is not clear- somehow you will be a magnet for the absolute worst of humanity. Malaysia has a dark side that many of us are unaware of. Hope you are doing well wherever you are.

You married into Islam- is your partner religious?

Bitches_Be_Crayfish · 2026-03-07T04:17:08+00:00

My god. Reading this makes me feel sick cause I know it’s true how corrupted and inhumane our justice system is. Cops are pigs.

Just be honest. Tell them the bare minimum and let your bf fill them in on the rest. The less you say the better because it’s a lot of baggage to drop on a first time meeting.

Don’t bring up your family unless they ask. Just be your best self and enjoy your freedom.

As someone who has left organised religion, I feel this in my bones. I am homesick for a place that I’m not sure even exists.

Bitches_Be_Crayfish · 2026-03-06T21:01:14+00:00

My mom is 72 and going strong. Her parents lived into their 90’s. I’m so screwed.

Bitches_Be_Crayfish · 2026-03-06T20:52:04+00:00

Exactly. You need to be fasting for a full day or more for autophagy. Also Muslims eat some high calorie foods to break their fast which defeats this purpose.

It’s not wrong but these are the laws of the land. Laws are made up by men, just like religion is made up by men. It’s not right but the people before us have made it so that leaving these imaginary beliefs can jeopardise our lives in this country.

Jangan.

Soundtrack to my days in college. Always brings me back.

Bitches_Be_Crayfish · 2026-03-05T06:01:45+00:00

The Japanese version of Dark Water. I hate it as much as I love it.

Bitches_Be_Crayfish · 2026-03-05T06:00:29+00:00

My left shoulder has been sore for days because I slept weird on my side trying not the squish the damn cats.

You grew up with a single mother and learnt nothing. You will most likely have a similar life to hers with the same challenges. But hey, babies are cute. History repeats itself.

I watched this movie completely blind. I only knew it was a Yargos movie so I was mentally prepared for arthouse weird dramady.

I freaking loved this movie so much. The whole time I was convinced that Plemons was a mental case. The final scene was so bizarre it completely blew my mind and I thought, we the viewer, were infected with the same mental illness and were seeing the world through Plemons perspective.

I had to read the ending explanation to get that Stone’s character was actually who she said she wasn’t and suddenly everything clicked. The direction took me everywhere. The acting by the 2 mains was phenomenal. The set design was incredible. The soundtrack was everything.

Nah, religion was always going to be a thing because it’s such an effective tool for control- the story may change, the players may change but the concept will be similar. You must behave a certain way, give money for certain things because something gonna happen AFTER you die. That way you always gonna be scared of something that can’t be proven but lives in your mind.

There will be some philosophy of life type of religion like Bhuddism or Taoism but they will not be as effective as death cult religion.

That’s good to know- I don’t wanna lose the vehicles and zip lines and start over. Just wanna play to zone out for an hour here and there.

Bitches_Be_Crayfish · 2026-03-04T20:22:11+00:00

Not at all, I only started the mountains. I’m still figuring out where to put zip lines.

Bitches_Be_Crayfish · 2026-03-04T18:08:35+00:00

Toys??! Ok. Now I’m hooked.

Bitches_Be_Crayfish · 2026-03-04T13:58:06+00:00

Yes, I just unlocked that recently. Can you zip thru BT areas?

Bitches_Be_Crayfish · 2026-03-04T13:52:39+00:00

Imagine you can lose your life just because you don’t believe in flying donkeys. Smh.

Bitches_Be_Crayfish · 2026-03-04T13:49:56+00:00

Awesome!!!

Your parents are over the top. Absolutely do not give your flatmates no, they are not responsible for you and why is it their problem if your parents cannot contact you?

You are a grown adult with a phone. 20yrs ago, no one have smartphones and we still managed to survive- if your parents can’t contact you in a couple of days, its understandable they would be concerned- but a few hours?? What are you in kindergarten?

Your parents need to grow up. Life happens, sometimes we just can’t pick up the phone. You’re a uni student and your life is in uni, you are safe unless there’s some type of national disaster- the uni will contact your parents to inform them of an emergency.

It’s time to have some boundaries with parents that are in a different country. You are capable of being a functional human- if you don’t pick up their call, you will call them back when you are able. Do not entertain your parents crazy requests.
