Just felt like venting a little because its kinda putting me on edge, moreso than normal. So first thing was on tuesday I was home for dinner that day and during dinner I brought up the fact I am still looking to be diagnosed because she said she could help me with getting an appointment through her insurance or whatever......But then of course I went on to bring up that I want to apply for SSI again and being the type who blurts things out she said 'why so then you and your boyfriend can live on SSI."(yeah I am dating a guy whos not in college and not working he's on disability).....she said she was joking but it still kind of offended me. Next I feel like shes going to start complaining at me for spending so much time with my boyfriend.....I mean I'm 22, I have every right to hang out with who I choose as often as I would like.

Then yesterday when I was at his house......she called me to ask if I could walk to my brothers school and pick him up and bring him home. So I asked her for the name of the school so I could look it up on google maps since I am not quite sure where it is from our house.....and she got all annoyed over nothing I mean I am a visual learner its easier for me to look at a map to find where I am going then try to figure out verbal directions. But yeah as it turned out I was not going to be home from college in time to go get him anyways but the whole phone conversation left me feeling quite angry and frusterated.

Uhh, I just hate how most of my family especially my mom knows nothing about me and tries to psychologically manipulate me.

Oh and kind of off topic but I am kinda concerned about my dad, last time I talked to him I garantee he was either really high on drugs....or has gone insane. So yeah, I don't even know if he's alive right now honestly......guess I should try and get ahold of him and see how he's doing.

Your mom probably was joking even tho it came off inappropriately. Sounds like one of those things people say and don't think about how it comes off till afterwards.

You should be able to hang out with who you want, as long as she hasn't complained about it yet, things are probably fine on that front. Normally parents (good parents) only have an issue with that thing if its getting in the way of responsibilities at home. That said, your an adult and the choice is yours.

Hope your dads ok
