I Am Feeling Down

Had a rough week. My mom said some horrible unforgivable things.
I still want to forgive her I still want her in my life. Yet she says she doesn’t care wether I’m in her life or not.
She told me to stay away.
All the anxiety coping strategies just don’t work.
I can’t shake off this feeling. I don’t know how long it’s going to last. I want this feeling to pass. I want to be happy.
When I’m down I usually ring her. When I need anything I usually ring her.
She really doesn’t want me in her life.
I can accept it and do the things people suggest to help.
It hasn’t helped. I’m still feeling like I wish I wasn’t here.

*update* my mom called me
I don’t think she regrets saying those things or is even sorry.
I’m going to just let it pass and put it down to mental health.
Iv been there and when I was really down I was horrible sometimes too.

You are the better person for handling it this way. And most likely you are right about the mental health, no person in their right mind would ever say that to their child, the enemy of her soul was in charge when those words were spoken, and you can never go wrong by walking in forgiveness towards her. Just try to find some positive influnces to overcome the negative ones.

🌸 I will pray for her!
love her, and realize she might have a mental disorder, get a support group like children of adult alcoholics or adult children of abuse, nami, family members of the mentally ill, counseling, and be good to yourself and limit the time with her!

Oh sweetie parental abuse is such a horrible thing . For someone to say that to their own child is absolutely unforgivable . Your mother’s toxic behavior is poisoning you , just as she intended . I’m so sorry that’s she’s ill ( mentally .., no sane person willingly harms their child) , but you have to move on from her . Your happiness should not be tied to her . Of course it would be great if she were normal ... but in reality she’s not .

I'm sorry you are going through a tough time. Feeling anxious and stressed is not fun. It can really impact ones mental health and physical state. My best advice is,dont fight it. Feel whatever you have to feel and let it pass. The more you fight it the stronger it will come back the longer it will preserve. Good luck ,I hope you feel better soon 💕

You need to stay away from those who harm you physically or emotionally even if society happened to label that human as your “mom”.

Forgiveness is one thing and trust is another. Best not to trust her.

Maybe Mom had a bad week too.\
Give it a rest for awhile.
Give her some space.
Unless you are Satan's Spawn kind of kid, she'll get over it.

I am sorry,but it's unlikely she'll change.

It's not okay.
You are not what she says.

Budwick · 70-79, M

@Carlisle I assume this behavior is something new.
What happened to change things?
Mom may be suffering some mental issues.
You know what - I shouldn't be commenting on this

Carlisle · F

No it’s not new. It’s on going. She used to be worse. She has improved over time. But the other night she slipped back into it again.
