Mom Won’t Leave My Apartment

Card image cap

Location: California . Essentially I let my mom come over to my apartment so she could help me move out. The thing is, she kept demeaning me and telling me she was the only reason I had anything in my life. This went on for 3 days and I eventually had enough. We argued about it and she refused to apologize and then said she was going to borrow my car and leave for the day. So obviously I thought she meant she was going to stay someplace else for the night. Before beginning her drive back, she called me and let me know… to which I promptly told her she was more than welcome to stay in a hotel for the night but she was not welcome back. Knowing how she is, I put the door chain on the door because I had already made it clear to her that I did not want her in my safe space. When she got back, she removed the chain from the door and came in. She also refused to return my car keys/house keys. I hesitantly called the police because she kept threatening to make a call to send me to the psych ward. The police came and literally did nothing… the only reason I even got my keys back was because she was afraid. And now it’s been a few more days and she still won’t leave even though she told me after the police left “if you want me to leave I’ll leave”. I genuinely don’t know what to do at this point because I feel like a prisoner in my own home. Am I overreacting? She just really overstepped and I have no ideas anymore.
