I know exactly how you feel. And I hate when people say stuff like that, like you can control the depression. We have no control over the disorder, that's why it's called a disorder! Geez. People can be so insensitive, especially family members for some reason.

Is there anyway you can ask you mom, politely, to not say that to you anymore? Tell her it's hurtful to you and you'd really appreciate it if she could understand that you don't have control over your depression and that phrase really upsets you?

I don't know how understanding your folks are. I doubt I could ask mine to stop saying the **** they do.

I hope it gets better, for us both.
