Fear of judgement
...See more I just recently realised that, how much I'm suffering from fear of judgement. I can't even communicate properly with someone. I checked 100 times before sending a small message to someone, and overthink alot abt the conversation that I just had with someone to ensure i didn't said something bad or what's opposite person thinking about me. I didn't even able to stay being myself in my room cause I thought my roommate will judge me (she is my classmate) . I know may be it's sound weird. But I'm actually feeling so stressed, frustrated and overwhelmed.... I'll like if you already read it then share some tips and thoughts

Disagreement I had with my mom over my future
...See more On Christmas, my mom came over to spend time with me and my siblings. It was great, we had Popeyes, played some games, it was fun. My mom then brings up the future. And how we are gonna live our adult lives. I told her I wanted to be a traditional wife.  And she was quite surprised.  I’ve grown up as the “gifted kid”. Got better grades (like usually straight A’s but I had times where I got B’s or C’s for a final grade), graduated high school at 15, yada yada.  Which i guess gave my mom the impression that I was gonna become a girl boss. Take on some challenging but well paid career path like being a lawyer or some sort of doctor.  And she told me as gently as possible that probably wasn’t a good idea because what if my husband leaves and I’m left with nothing and now I have babies to feed. And those are legitimate concerns, I’m not denying that. But I think that as long as I have a backup plan, and I do the preparations before becoming a trad-wife, I could make things work.  Because I’m afraid that if I do have kids, that by spending a lot of time working and taking care of the kids at the same time would be a lot of unnecessary stress that my kids are gonna in one way or another suffer, like through emotional neglect. And as someone who’s suffered from emotional neglect, I don’t want anyone, ANYONE, to go through that.  Perhaps I could get a job after the formative years that’s not entirely full time, but maybe part time, which would still help me pitch in financially so that not all of the financial burden is on my husband. And I told my mom all of that, but she’s desperate on me getting a degree, getting a job, and working, even as a mom.  Because jobs don’t care if ur a stay at home mom, if u have a Highschool degree, and no job experience, there’s no way an employer is gonna hire u. Which I understand.  But even then, if the job market is such trash then I could just move to another country where I can still live my dream. Idk.  Im just not sure that going into college, when you don’t know what you wanna do, and hoping for the best, is gonna be fruitful. I mean maybe it will, but in my case, since I know me, idk if that’s gonna work. I wanna know what I wanna do before I go into college so I’m not wasting my parents money, and also putting myself into a load of debt. Maybe it’s just from my personal issues that I think this approach won’t be so helpful for me, and I honestly do believe that’s probably it. But there’s probably also some truth to that, in that going into college and hoping for the best isn’t that wise, considering how much it costs, and how much debt you’ll be put under.  All I’m saying is that i don’t know if I should go to college or not. I’m not sure what job I wanna pursue, or how that and or college is going to get in the way of my other goals. I do know I’m set on wanting to be a stay at home mom as my primary job, and having my husband be the breadwinner or at least mostly. And I do know I’m set on not having a full time job or full time college classes during some parts of my future child’s life, maybe after a certain period, but that really depends on the circumstances.  I just don’t know if I’m thinking unrealistically. I wanna be a traditional wife, and I think that would give future me the most fulfillment. Maybe my thoughts would change but for now, this is what I want for my future, and depending on the circumstances I might need to work part time, or if I wanna work full time after a certain period in my child’s life, I could do that. But my mom thinks that’s not a good idea and I’m more than likely going to end up on welfare or homeless, and I guess she wants me to be working and be a mother at the same time.  So, any thoughts or advice?
