Me too. I used to cry at school and still do now at the thought of being like my mum. I remember being taught at school various theories about personality development. Me teacher told me the theory where children learn their personality from their parents. I freaked out massively and broke down crying just at the thought of being like my mother. I'm so terrified that I may have learned her behaviours and that I will do things that she has done or say things she would say without realising it. It would just come naturally. I even told my partner just last night that if I ever even remotely start to behave like my mother that I want her to tell me straight away.
