16F, my family is falling apart, my mom collapsed today, and I don't know how to save her or fix our relationship

I'm typing this while crying and honestly my hands are still shaking. I’m 16, living in India with my parents and my 10yo autistic brother. We’re lower middle class and things at home have been bad for a long time, but today everything just exploded.

​My dad is extremely passive and emotionally absent. He works a low paying 9-5, never stands up for my mom, and avoids any conflict or responsibility. My mom spent 20 years hoping he’d step up, but she’s completely broken now. Her only simple dream was for her husband to have a vehicle so they could go out together, but my dad doesn't even know how to drive and never bought one.

She does literally everything—groceries, banking work, taking care of my special-needs brother, everything—mostly on foot or by autos.

​Today they were taking my brother to the hospital. On the road, they had a small argument, and my dad literally dumped all the bags in my mom's hands, left her and my brother on the street, and walked back home alone.

​When my mom got back, she broke down crying uncontrollably. A little later, she fainted on the floor (she has an inner ear issue that gives her vertigo when stressed). I had to run and pick her up. And my dad? He was just hiding in the other room under a blanket doing absolutely nothing. He didn't even check on her. I panicked so hard I couldn't breathe for hours thinking my mom might do something to herself.

​Here is the hardest part: my mom stays sad all day, barely speaks, and only interacts with my younger brother. She spends a lot of time writing in her journal. One day while she was out, I secretly read a few pages. She had written: "Now along with my husband, my daughter has also become my enemy." Reading that completely broke my heart.

​The rift between us started back in 2024. Seeing our financial struggle, I genuinely wanted to earn money for her. I fell for those Instagram reels promising lakhs from home, which turned out to be an MLM/course-selling scheme. I persuaded my mom to pay ₹5,192 for the course. I worked day and night on it, but when no money came in and I realized it was a useless scam, my mom was devastated. She told me I wasted her hard-earned ₹5,000 that could have been used for so many essentials.

Since then, it’s been 6 months of silent treatment. Whenever I try to talk or apologize, she just shuts down and ignores me.

​My mental health is completely ruined. I score well in school, but I can't focus on anything anymore. I just want to take my mom and my brother and run away somewhere far from my dad.

​Please tell me what should I do? 😞
