mother strikes again
As my very first journal entry was about my mother and her lack of sympathy, I unfortunately have some more hurtful things added to my list.
Because my sister refuses to stick my 2year old niece into daycare, I am forced to look after her.
Im having a rather bad flare up in my right knee, which is causing me headaches and ive cried a few times, which has never happened before.
So in result I could not look after my niece today and my mother got quite nasty. Telling me how selfish I was being and that i would have to get over eventually if I want to work and what not. I do not understand why she says these things to me. I do my best, but my parents do not understand how much it has made an impact and changed my life.
Im in a very dark place right now, and I honestly feeling like jumping off a cliff and she is not making it any better.

It\'s hard when no one understands or believes the pain you are going through! There are a lot of people that if they can\'t see the disability it doesn\'t exist! So sorry one of those is your mother. (((HUGS)))
