This is mildly childfree related, my beef with her had nothing to do with my stance as being childfree, but it's related in a way and this is the only place I could think to post this... And I really wanted to share.

My mother is an absolute baby about everything and I hate dealing with it. I'd draw boundaries and she would throw a fit about it. She kept pestering me about my personal business. She'd bother me at times I'd really rather not be bothered. And she's pouted about my general dislike of her behavior for forever and a half.

I called her out and simply asked her to act her fucking age and she seems to be trying to be an actual human being for once. I think I had a fucking breakthrough, finally!

I might get to live in a home without children if this sticks!

I'm a useless piece of shit, honestly.

I was doing so well, I had an amazing apartment, I miss the days when I wasn't diagnosed and I had my own place... But I gave that up to help a "friend" who has AnXiEtY and couldn't suck it up and face the issue when I had a breakdown and wasn't fit to work. All she did was shut me out and then kick me out when I was working on getting the treatment I needed to deal with my shit.

I blame myself for even bothering to help her find an apartment. She's a self-centered baby. If I'd have just told her to go fuck herself when she started whining about how much she dislikes being around depressed people, I'd still have my home. The perfect home that I literally fought for and made for myself.

I've been living in my parents basement for over two years now. I have a job and I just got full time and a pay raise. I'm saving money. I'm doing better than I was when shit went down, my medication is working, I no longer have need for therapy, but I can't accept the fact that I have a disability that just makes people straight up hate me when I've done nothing but try to take care of myself when I need it. I haven't even done anything extreme, I just wasn't fit to work because I was not okay.

Fuck this.

I am not looking for advice, I'm just ranting.
