I'm 19 and I feel like my hopes and dreams have been crushed by my own mother. When i was going to graduate high school I applied to another university farther way from home and in the end I couldn't go and she made me apply to one nearby. I know want to graduate from this one and want to move and she still wants to stay with the idea of me being here. I feel like she's so suffocating, I can;t remember a point in my life where I didn't have to worry about bills because she would make me plan out the payment arrangements and manage her money. I told her that we had to pay a specific amount for a bill and when I told her she made it seem as if it was my fault that she didn't have any money. I feel like I've had to grow with the burden of being an adult at 15. I couldn't live a "normal" teenager life, I now rarely go out because I don't have friends, I didn't have time to socialize because I was always shut in helping her or being depressed on my bed. She's never seen me as hers.
