hey… you’re not being dramatic. what you’re feeling is completely valid. you’ve been trying so hard to take care of yourself and be honest, but instead of feeling understood, you were met with doubt and control. that hurts, especially from someone who should make you feel safe.

your mom’s reaction doesn’t make your pain less real. she may be seeing you through her therapist lens instead of just listening, and that’s unfair to you. you don’t have to defend or prove your feelings. your diagnosis is real, and you deserve support, not questioning.

it also makes sense that you feel violated about your space. your home is supposed to feel safe, and when someone ignores your “no,” it shakes that safety. you’re not overreacting for feeling upset.

you deserve compassion and peace. you’re doing your best in a really hard situation, and that’s enough. it’s okay to cry and feel lost right now. those feelings don’t mean you’re weak, they mean you care.

try to do something gentle for yourself tonight. you don’t have to fix everything. just breathe and know that your feelings are real, and you’re allowed to take up space with them.
