I have been cutting the flowers off my mother's plants for the last five years. The plant is called Dracaena Fragrans if you want an idea of what it looks like and the flowers that they bloom. As the name suggests, when fully bloomed, these flowers produce a smell so strong, it gives me throbbing headaches and nausea. It smells like a bottle of expired perfume exploding in a retirement home assaulting my nostrils constantly. The worst part is, it fills the whole house so I can't escape it.

It makes me feel like I'm dying for a month when they bloom. I have told my mother and she has done nothing about it. So I have been cutting them myself when she's not home for years when they bloom. I have Googled if it hurts the plants and apparently it doesn't. These plants have been alive as long as I have and they grow back flowers every year.

Today she texted me:

"the plants are blooming this year. Please don't cut them, it hurts the plants."

It smells like Asian grandma in a retirement home assaulting my nostrils. The worst part is, it fills the whole house so I can't escape it.

My parents always criticized me, saying I was overreacting when I said anything else. So I learned to say "I'm fine" when they asked how I was doing, even though I was dying inside. I resent them for not being able to hold space for me, saying I was too much. I don't tell them anything now and they ask why. Typical emotional unintelligent parents.

It's literally not showing up even though I can see on my other account in the agency that the open space is still there. I can even send myself invites but the invite isn't showing up.

What is causing this?

That's like a restaurant reviewing themselves and saying they're five stars. It's like a government or company investigating themselves and saying there's no corruption here.
