I recently lost my job, my unemployment, and my financial aid for school. Im totally broke, no income what-so-ever. I was also diagnosed with severe depression and anxiety (which recently got worse due to job loss), on top of epilepsy and a learning disability. My mom, however, seems to not understand this. My whole life she has always forced things on me, which has lead to lots of feelings of resentment. When I was grown(about 16), she forced religion on me...she did this by saying she would take me out of my school with all my friends and put me in another one where I didn't know anyone. She also said she would take away my car, phone and internet if I didn't go to church and be a good Christian as she was. She also forced me into jobs I wasn't comfortable with. Needless to say she has always been a pusher. Recently my mom threatened to cut off my phone contract and my car insurance to prove a point.....her point being that she wanted me to take on work that was once again outside my comfort zone, and my doctor told me not to do. I pay for these things, but I get them at a discounted rate because of a family plan. So by being cut off, I would wind up having to purchase them at at LEAST twice as much...and I obviously can't afford that...I would lose my car and phone...both of which I need for work....Why is my mom doing this? I know she feels the need to prove a point...but its harmful, and hurtful and it seriously makes me angry and sad that she does this.
