I believe we are getting closer! All it required was a little more patience on my part and holding my tongue before I snapped back if something was said that I objected to. She helped throw a wonderful party for me for me birthday with much help from my aunt. I wouldn’t have had such a memorable night if it weren’t for them, and they were willing to give me so much more than I was willing to give myself. I hadn’t dreamed as big a party as they believed I deserved. In my mind, a party wasn’t necessary for my birthday, I didn’t mind spending it at home for my family. But they encouraged me to invite people, and created a formal occasion with a gourmet meal another woman from my church helped them create. I love her so much. This recent birthday marks a new beginning. 3 years ago

I know we don’t always see eye to eye and some of that may be because we express ourselves differently and we are two different people. But there’s a lot of her that I see in me and I want to closer to her because she’s the only mom in the world that I’ll ever need. I can be indifferent, rude, annoyed, or really defensive around her at times, and I don’t want her to see me as only that person. I want her to see me as the caring, responsible, loving daughter that I do feel I am, but don’t always appear to be. I know she’s been through a lot in her life, and she does the things she does because she wants me to have a better life. And I know I do. I live such a blessed and privileged life. So I want to be able to show my appreciation for all that she put into my life and all that she helped me to become. Thanks mom. =) 3 years ago

She hates me.
She calls me emo.
She mocks my problems.
She makes fun of me.
She makes me cry.
She hurts me emotionally.
She takes everything out on me.

Its all in HER. ITS ALL HER PROBLEMS. 5 years ago

Me and my Mom used to be so close. I miss her. I miss her and me being so close. I loved telling her every aspect of my life. Guys. Friends. School.

Then I got this “teenage thing” or so she thought. I started cutting myself…and she…I think…got disgusted with me. She couldn’t talk to me right for a while.

I felt terrible. I even tried to commit suicide. It was bad. She underestimates the problems I have sometimes. Oh…I wish I could tell her “Mom…I hate my life. I want to die. I want to cut. Help me?”

What do I do? I miss her so much. 5 years ago
