I'm tired of living—I don't know why, but I'm fed up. Every day feels like Groundhog Day, and another big—and maybe silly—reason is my mom's overprotectiveness. Imagine this: I’m 18, but my mom still checks my phone, reads my messages without permission—and not only that, but she can leave a group chat without my consent, or delete any app or social media account from my phone without a second thought. God forbid you block her somewhere— She constantly texts and calls me when I’m at school or at home—that is, when she’s at work and I’m somewhere else, even at some event. It doesn’t matter to her; she says she’s worried about me, but I think it’s too much. Plus, she calls right away or video calls; if I don’t pick up within five or ten minutes, she starts calling my friends. Oh, right, I almost forgot—I don’t have any friends, just one girlfriend. she knows all my passwords, from my phone’s lock screen to the codes for my banking apps—actually, that’s just the tip of the iceberg.
