This always happens

My mother has always been a very negative force in my life; none of my plans have ever been good enough, none of my ambitions high enough for her tastes. This year, I realized that I'm doing just fine on my own and that I don't need her approval or much of anything else and made the decision to cut her out of my life for the most part. I felt a relief that I didn't know I needed.

Things might feel difficult now, but they won't be forever. :)

Sorry that you have a terrible mom.. Imagine having an actual mom that apreciates your efforts and was proud of you regardless

She needs to sort her priorities

But did you actually give it your best efforts? Who says there will be a next time.. But even if you did better than anyone else.. It seems your mom is the type to just criticize you with every chance she gets.. It's not you, its her.. She's a bitterly unhappy person who resents life and has an inferiority complex and is picking on you because of it.. 😏

I often found myself walking the thin line of doing what was expected and doing what I needed to do (for myself). Mother daughter relationships are tricky and often fraught with disappointment (on both sides). You are not alone 🤗

Aw I feel the same :( you know these things affect you from your childhood right until you are older and you feel sad about yourself because it becomes to a point where it’s internalised ... so sad but I feel for you as I’m struggling with the same thing :(

Thats shitty. Family is hard and judgey at times. Trust me, they usually aren't worth the fight. Be yourself and don't worry about what you're parents say. I would rather just live life how I want

You need to tell her how she makes you feel. She may not even know she's doing it. If she keeps doing it after that you're just gonna have to know that's how she is and you can't look to her for support. You'll have to find support from someone else. :( I hope it gets beter. *HUGS*

Sometimes parents don’t give us what we need. It’s absolutely okay to fail though and your mom’s inability to say it doesn’t change that 💚

That's abusive behaviour. You're only in competition with yourself. She might be doing it because she feels bad about herself.

Maybe her calling you a failure will make you achieve something? It could be good.

My dad was like that but it made me stronger and i did all i could to prove him wrong

Parents are the worst
