My Mom Stops Me From Everything I Want to Do?
Question by daydreamer: my mom stops me from everything i want to do?
she already makes my like absolutely miserablle from all her needs and sadness, that she projects on me, but now she is making it even worse. I have learned to ignore her because it makes my life easier but now everrrrrrrrrrrrytime she sees me she has to make some comment to me about something. Whether its asking me to do something, asking me not to do something (throw cig buts in the yard) do the dishes, ANYTHING. She is soooooooooo naggy. And i was walking out side to take a bikeride and i see her walking towards me (like WHAT ARE THE CHANCES!!) im already so freaking pissed that i saw her and as i was walking by she was like, “did we scare you” like obviously she didnt scare me she is just sooooo anoying. Im done giving that woman attention. She acts like she deserves it and it is NEVER reciprocated. By the way after she made that stupid comment i just didnt feel AT ALL like taking a bikeride. It ruined my motivation and positivity. I HATE HER!!! And i hate how she can take my alright day and make it absolutely horrible and unbearable. Im trying to move out but it is really hard when you have no one you can move in with and when you find it very hard working full time or at all with my level of depression. I have applied from disability and i have yet to hear from the lawyer if i got it. Please help
