I am so angry. I can't take much more of my mom. I love her but I just get so annoyed with her. I need and want to be on my own. The housing application for income housing has some info that she needs to feel out and she won't do it. I asked her all of last month to do it and she put it off and then I've asked her all of this month and she's put it off. I love her. I really do but I need to be on my own. I need to get better and I can't do that here with her. She has so much to work on and so do I and I can't do it living with her. I'm not saying my depressing is her fault because its not but she contributes to it. I know that she doesn't want to be alone but I can't do it. I cant get better with her around. I need to work on myself and I can't di it with her. I feel like a bad daughter.

Maymie I am sorry you have to deal with all of this . And I am proud of you for trying to take control of your life and do what is best for you!! One thing comes to mind on this as a suggestion. If you know her schedule ( when you know she will be home and you will be home at the same time) just get the paperwork and sit down with her randomly and say we need to work on this. It wont give her a chance to say I cant because I dont have time. And it might help her to have you there to help her with it too. I hope this helps. Sometimes it helps the person who has to do the writing to have someone there to be of support.

Take care (((((((((((( MAYMIE))))))))))))))

You are not a bad daughter in the slightest. You clearly don't want to hurt your mother, but it is important for you to be able to help yourself out and do what you need to do to live the best life possible and gain independence.

I'm sorry your mother isn't really understanding that. Is there anyone you could get involved to help convince your mother to do the remainder of the paperwork?
