Feeling bad

I just want to vent a little I guess.

It's been a really bad year for me. I'm not close with my parents at all. My mum hates me, she has done for years, not sure why. I feel like she regrets having me? But we're not close. If I bump in to her in the street and say hi she ghosts me, says nothing and keeps walking like I'm not even there. That hurts a lot. I've heard before that girls should be close with their mums but no matter how hard I try I can't get close with her. So sad.

I've been diagnosed with anxiety, depression and PTSD. A few months ago I was abused by some stranger I'd never even seen before, and though it wasn't really my fault, I still feel ashamed and responsible for what happened. Sometimes I just break down and cry. And my mental health is so triggered since it happened. And I'm now pregnant which sucks because I'll be a terrible mum.

I've started self harming again. I used to self harm all the time as a teen but then stopped but it's started again now. Yesterday I had to go to hospital for stitches because I cut to deep.

Just feeling in a really bad place right now and don't know how to get out of it. I feel trapped and very low.

I'm grateful to be able to come here. I've made some friends on cups and they help me more than they know.

Anyway rant over.

@CharlaCharlie

You can still be a good mother if you want to be , no pressure with the choice, it will be yours always but know that you have the power for any change you wish to make in your life and certainly not defined by your mum .

It is nice you are here and made good friends too . Hugs if you consent . <3
