Your mother has caused enough stress in your life. It's time for you to let her go. I know she's your mom but enough is enough. If I were you I would cut off all contact with her and get into counseling if you aren't already. It's time to move forward and leave her in the past.

I do belive that I will have to let her go, Because just today she contacted me through the internet  about wanting some money. I have just moved from Arkansas to Oklahoma to get away from her.She did not have anything to say except about money.

Listen to janissa, she gave you very sound advice. Your mother is not worth the anxiety and grief she is causing you. It's time to move on with your life. Forgive her for her weakness, pity her pathetic life, but don't let her destroy yours. You only have one life to live, live it and forget she exsists. If she tries to contact you again don't answer her, just ignore her, she'll get the picture eventually and leave you alone. And you will be much happier with her completely out of your life. This is the voice of experience talking, you owe her nothing, and you need never feel guilty for your discision.

Accept the fact that your mother was never a mother and is unlikely to suddenly start behaving as one.  Behavior tends to remain consistent and if she is a sexual predator, she is untreatable.  I am truly sorry for what you have gone through, but she failed you as a parent, there was nothing wrong with you as a kid, but I am sure that may be difficult for you to believe at this point.

Thank you for your ansewer.I have come to relize that I really never had a mother. I do have trouble just forgetting about her.I moved to a diffrent state to get away from her. Now I think I have more than one mental disability.Some that I always had but just now comming out now.
