I love my mom. But I feel like she's criticizing me a lot these days.

For context, I(20f) live with my family and work night shifts. I've been noticing that my mom gets triggered over the smallest of things and texts me long messages of stuff I forget to do. To be clear, she's not condescending about it, but I feel like she's making a mountain out of a mole hill. Even when I say sorry, she always has to get the last word in as if I just stabbed somebody. I also have two little sisters that she cares for and I get the stress, but even when it's my day off and the kids are home from school, she always has something bad to say about me.

I got angry at her over text and I'm still steaming. She's always in my business and I've rarely received even one compliment from her these days. Even when I bought her flowers for Mother's Day, she said, "I'm gonna cry. You should've bought something productive instead."

I don't know what to do anymore.
