my mom doesn't understand

my mom is really abusive. she doesn't understand me. she doesn't care about me. but afterall she's my mother. and my belief is really strong. im alive right now just for my belief that my life is a gift and i cant waste it. my belief tells me "that's your mother. act like it. respect her." and i do just that. she also manipulates me in every way of my life. but i cant help it. i listen to my belief that she's my mother and i have to act like it. but after she gets her work done she always breaks my heart. she acts nice and all sweet when she's manipulating me and when her work is done i start getting abused.

i really dont tell her about my feelings. but i really thought about it. and today i did. i was expecting her not to understand. but i hoped. the only thing that gets me going. but pushes me through the edge all the time. and my expectation was true. she didn't understand. she gave me that i-dont-care vibe and threatened me she'll tell everyone false information about me. which always happens. i just get manipulated easily and fall in her traps. and i feel worse tham ever.

I am really sorry you are going through this with you mom. I will congratulate you for trying to talk to her about how you feel because it sounds like it took a lot of courage for you to do so. It's awful that she didn't hear you and that she threatened to spread lies about you. Her abuse and manipulations say more about the person she is than the person you are. It's admirable that you choose to try to respect her as your parent when you are given no respect as a person too. Your feelings and thoughts matter, even if she refuses to hear you.

You mentioned that hope is keeping you going. I'm glad to hear you say you have hope for the future. What plans do you have for the future? If your goal is to continue your education, you could request information from the schools you'd like to attend. If moving away is your goal, would it be possible for you to work part time to start saving for saving for your future? It's not too early or too late to start taking steps towards you goals. It could offer you even more hope.
