I had a therapist's appointment the other day which my dad has been going with me the last few sessions. My mother went to 2 meetings in the beginning; the second time she monopolized the time, starting out saying how much I was improving but then turning the whole visit into talking about herself.

Anyway, she has been on another BPD bender, bemoaning how my Golden Child brother (the one who drinks and does meth privately, has wrecked multiple vehicles and stolen thousands of dollars) gets everyone's leftover attention.

Long drawn out story short; after my therapy session my dad tried to tell her the T wanted her to come to the next session (they've been divorced since 1987), she refused to listen to anything my dad was trying to tell her. My brother came outside,my dad tried to tell him, the brother began yelling about what an as*hole I am, my dad tried to get him to talk calmly, and to write down his issues with me or come to the sessions, he began raising his voice louder again. My mother joined my brother outside and began hollering her own input, they began demanding my dad A: remove his truck from 'their' driveway and B: that he take me and all my 's**t' back to his place. My mother called for her roommate friend (who blindly follows her every whim) who began pushing toward my dad with his gut. I started to step between the 2 of them to break it up, My mother began taunting, daring me to call 911. My dad moved his truck out to the street while I called 911 (which amazingly I can speak to the operator almost eloquently). My dad and I waited out on the sidewalk for the officers to come, and immediately my brother started acting as though he had a right to move my belongings out onto the street; moving each item to the curb one by one, with an evident strut as he went for another pieceof my property.

This is not the first time by any stretch they have acted with malice toward me, this time by the grace of God I had a witness. Other times she, a self-possessed Christian threatened to fabricate false domestic violence charges against me.

The reason I felt I might need to hire an attorney is I've been paying rent to her, and 5 years ago they had me co-sign my name as a borrower on a mortgage so they could get a loan, and when she's not threatening false wife-beating charges, or getting me onto conservatorship she likes to threaten to force me to quitclaim on the deed the same way she brags about how she did with her ex-husband after my dad. Them knowing I can put all their asses on the street by me not paying hasn't stopped them from anything - I could give a rip less about my credit being ruined. All I want is their crap to end and for them to let me have my life back. After this episode on last Wednesday I've been squaring myself away, getting a bug-out-bag together, returning library books before they're due and planning when I can make a stealthy exit and hole up at my grandma's place. I haven't been able to be very proactive since I'm very afraid of what they'll try to do to my music equipment in reprisal before I have a chance to rescue it all.

I've been letting them gaslight me for a long time and I know when I get to finally vanish from their lives they're just the type of people to go sob all over Facebook about how their son and brother deserted them after everything they did for him. Therefore I had the insight to ask a friend from church who divorced his nasty ex-wife who his attorney was that helped him. Then again, if I had the money for attorneys and court fees that's the same as having the money to set myself up under a roof of my own all to myself and I wouldn't be going through this perennial heartache and brain damage

Once you get out, never look back. Although different, your mother's attitude is very familiar. Do not give in to their taunts. They want to have you punished eternally for having the nerve to call them out on their s**t.

it was illegal for your brother to move your stuff out without a formal eviction notice and whatever time your area allows for you to respond. I don't know how you can evict someone whose name is on the mortgage. I agree with you totally that the less you see of your mom and brother, the better. they are not operating sanely. best wishes in finding a better place to stay.

I'd talk to a lawyer. You should have some recourse be returned money you paid for the mortgage, especially if you were also paying rent as well.

I think the key phrase is "unjust enrichment".

Well I hope and pray for you to find a way out of that situation. I agree with the legal route, I don't know if you're diagnosed but taking advantage of a spectrum person in the way you described you could get the house and probably some kind of order for them to not go to the property. I demand justice for you even if I can't do anything about it. :)
