I’m so sorry that’s very immature of your mom.

Do you have a therapist? If not, find a recommendation for a good one , and if you do call them tomorrow and get an appointment. Mom's can be afraid to say the wrong thing, and then they say the wrong thing. It's scary for her too I'm guessing. You're right though, her response wasn't what you need at all. Working on my MSW - learning a lot about both sides of issues. ❤️

I’m sorry that was their response, you are brave for even telling them. Right now I’m sure everything feels harder and more difficult but take it day by day and there will be more for you and it will get better. I definitely recommend finding a therapist, it can be challenging to find the right one at first but you will. It will be good for you to have some tools to manage different day to day things, emotions, and conversations. Again you were brave, don’t discredit your emotions, you got this!

I’m sorry. Please try not to spiral in your thoughts that’s the hardest part but with the most pay off

i’m sorry that your mom reacted that way. try to talk to more friends than family. “the blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb.”

parents oftentimes don’t get it. its a good thing that you told them, bc i do think itll stay in her mind and might change her approach with u once it rly hits her that you were in a bad place like that. on the other hand, work on not placing value in her words bc she clearly isnt resonating with u right now and theres no point listening to people who can’t take the time to truly understand the weight of the situation u told her

My mother “threatened” me with sending me to therapy for telling her that I rather be de*d.

Have you considered switching majors or schools? That was the solution for me when I felt like this. I switched to my sister and highschool besties school
