a vent of sorts about what I have now realized is a toxic relationship with my mother. (very dramatic. proceed with caution)

mother you don't listen to me

mother you ignore me

mother you focus on what you want for me and not what I want for me


you do not ask someone how they feel by shouting at them.
when someone is crying you do not call them a baby and tell them to grow a set of balls.
you do not get angry at someone for not knowing how to deal with strong emotions.
you do not make fun of someone for crying instead of shouting when they are angry.Β 


I don't like the sad, moody person that I am but I don't know how to change. I don't like how rude I am to everyone around me and I wish I didn't feel so bad all the time so I could have a positive effect on the people.Β  I want to make the people in my life happy and be a person that my family can be proud of but how am I supposed to do that if I'm not happy with myself or my life or proud of myself?

"how did things ever get like this? we used to be like the Gilmore girls."
"oh, I'm sorry, did I hurt your feelings? fucking snowflake."




lol.

I’m so sorry that is happening to you…I know I’m just a random person on the internet, but I think you are more than the shitty things she says to you. Having feelings does not make you weak: it makes you human. You don’t have to change yourself, I promise. Being rude or moody is not a problem. Your emotions are part of your identity too. Also, it’s not your fault if you’re down sometimes; I’ve been there too, and trust me, it’s never your fault. Others shouldn’t make you think badly about yourself because of something you can’t control. I promise, life gets better, and so does your self esteem. Just, whatever you do, don’t give up. It might be tempting, it really is sometimes, but it’s not worth it. You are worth it.
