Today, I found out my mom recently stopped taking her medication. I came home to find she'd shot my dog because she thought he was possessed by the devil. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my mother informed me that she sold my dog to pay off some bills. FML
Today, my mom was in a really bad mood, so I stayed in my room to avoid her. It didn't take long before she barged in and started bitching about my dog, who'd pissed her off by acting too happy. Yes, she's actually that insane, and I have to deal with it on a daily basis. FML
Today, I found my mom throwing my very expensive and important medication down the toilet. She thought I was doing drugs. FML
Today, my mother locked me out of the house. Why? The dog and her needed some time to talk. FML
Today, I was awoken by a conversation my mom was having with my dog upstairs. She was telling my dog that a ghost lives in our house. She was completely serious. The ghost even has a name and a backstory. FML
Today, my dog nearly died when my mom fed him chocolate. After finding out dogs are not supposed to eat chocolate, she promptly grounded me for not telling her. FML
Today, while I took my dog out, my mother began to cook, took a Xanax, locked the doors, and passed out. When I managed to get in, I called the paramedics because she was in the smoke for at least an hour. When she became conscious, she blamed me for everything. FML
Today, my mother called me at work, freaking out about my dog, so I panicked. What was wrong? He had a hard-on and she'd never seen that happen before. FML
Today, I called my mother to check up on her. Lately, she's been having some financial problems, so last week I sent her my last $100 to help her out until her next paycheck. She used the money to euthanize the family dog. FML
Today, my girlfriend whom I'm crazy about broke up with me out of the blue. After pleading with her unsuccessfully, I called my mom for comfort and advice. She informed me that my dog had died. FML

Your mom needs some serious help, like I can't even believe that happened. That poor dog... Maybe get her to a doctor before something like this happens again...

This is one of my most horrifying things I've ever read. I'm so sorry.

Need to get rid of any guns she may have access to, or keep them in a safe she doesn't have the code or combination to. Maybe a good idea to keep pets away from her too. She needs a lot of help. Is there any way to hire someone to watch her during the day to make sure she takes her medication?

Generally the first thing a psychologist will tell you when you have a family member who is delusional is to immediately remove any weapons from our house. Get the gun out of the house

That is horrible, I'm so so sorry OP. Get your mother help asap, she obviously really needs it.

Ummm, call her psychiatrist and he'll gladly help get her to the mental home, really the only option now since she poses a threat to everything, and also as long as shes with you get rid of the gun, too dangerous to have in the house

Mental institution maybe?

Jesus. I'm so sorry :( she is unsafe to be around other living creatures. Normally I'd say she needs to be beaten to death for shooting a dog, but mental illnesses can be serious. I am so so sorry for the pain you're going through. Make sure she gets help or cease contact until she does. Never allow her alone near your animals again. It will get better. Time will heal.

Call the local SPCA for animal cruelty, call the police, and GTFO ASAP! She'll shoot you next!
