What do you think i should do to get over my sexually abusive mother?

Therapy: Get the right therapist. Someone who will focus on what's intact rather than what happened that shouldn't have. One that will focus on who you can love now rather than who you hated in the past. One that will focus on the present and the future. One who will reprogram you. It should not be that long or that difficult. Here's to a better "you".

With courage: Therapy is needed for this kind of situation. Resulting difficulties can vary, but issues of trust, fear/hate, and self-loathing are a few common ones that can also make it hard to trust the therapist. Finding one you can work with over time is crucial. These issues are not only "in the past" but can be relived in the present. You can gradually integrate & make peace with your experiences.
