Those are not necessarily mistakes but without knowing full context including tones it is hard to comment. You are right to stand up for yourself BUT a better tactic could be instead of fighting back (reacting) you stop the fight.Do not continue any conversation if not done in a respectful way. She can rant and rave all she wants but you can CHOOSE to not entertain it. Reread the boundaries thread.
Best wishes
