Seeking Relief from a Mother's Curse After Her Passing

Assalamu alaikum. My mother passed away three years ago, and I'm struggling deeply. She was a devoted woman who gave us everything, but she had diabetes and serious anger issues. In her rage, she would sometimes make baddua against me. I was a careless teen-lazy, mischievous, and I pushed boundaries. She warned I'd appreciate her only after she was gone, and I didn't listen. Since her death, our family's been hit with trouble after trouble. Financially, we're struggling. My father once had a good life, but it was ruined by black magic. He sacrifices everything for my education, hoping I'll support him, but I feel like a failure. I can't stay consistent-I have ADHD. I've tried praying my five daily prayers, making sincere tawbah, sobbing in sujood, but it's like my duas hit a closed door. I find no peace. I'm slipping into addictions, becoming someone I hate, and I feel powerless. I'm convinced this isn't a test from Allah or black magic-it's my mother's baddua. My dreams were never selfish; they were for my family's welfare and serving others, yet my life feels cursed. Dark thoughts creep in-sometimes about ending it all, sometimes whispers of atheism-but I know I won't act on them. I can't fight my mind forever. I just want to provide for my family so they can live comfortably. I need guidance from the Qur'an and Sunnah on lifting a parent's baddua when they've passed away. What kaffarah can someone without money do? What did the Prophet teach about reversing a justified curse? I'm desperate for specific du'as, actions from the salaf-anything real. Please, if you have knowledge, share it kindly. I'm barely holding on.

Hit me hard when you said duas feel like a closed door. But Allah hears. For your ADHD, try ruqyah and focus on small consistent deeds. The salaf taught that increasing salawat can break calamities.

Brother, the fact you're crying in sujood shows Allah hasn't abandoned you. Your mother's du'a can be lifted by your own sincere du'a for her. Give charity on her behalf, even a smile. Keep making tawbah.

Bro, been there. My uncle had similar, he started reading Surah Al-Baqarah daily with yaqeen and saw huge shifts. Also, sadaqah jariyah in your mom's name-dig a well, plant a tree. It lifts blight.

Man, I'm not a scholar but I've heard that a parent's baddu'a can be reversed by their child's righteousness and constant istighfar. Maybe do hajj or umrah for her? Don't lose hope.
