Mom: Hm,,
#DONT REBLOG#my parents are crazy overprotective and sometimes it gets to be a bit much#like i have zero memories of high school that dont involve my classes or marching band i dont go to parties i dont hang out with my friends#i cant even leave the house to have a day by myself. i know they just want to protect me but theyre going to such a degree that its#frustrating and actuallu detrimental to my development. this is the time of my life when i should most be out and about making friends and#connections but the world is too big and cruel and scary to let their children into and the only reason im even remotely socially adjusted#is because i joined an extracurricular. i hate being stuck under parents’ wings all the time and whenever my mom demands why i cant do some#simple adult-ish task i have a to bite back my retort that i cant do things ive never been taught i cant do things just by seeing them#happen and its even worse because she or my dad is right there watching and that heightens my anxiety bc some part of me still seeks their#approval and i dont want to risk failing#and yet im also afraid to be on my own bc intentionally or not the way theyve raised me has caused me to become so dependent on them for#so much and i hate and i know i need to change it but i dont know how. im holding onto the hope that if i can get a job and therefore money#and therefore this society’s /autonomy/ i can finally change that about myself but right now im too scared to even apply for one. its worse#bc my mom is trying to encourage me getting a job for me to get work experience but shes also part of the problem and its a mess and its#my parents’ fault but also mine bc of my hesitance and fear and im blaming them for so much of it and ugh.#......this certainly evolved in a way i didnt expect oops#negativity
