I need to rant

My dad is super stressed. So my mum is trying to help him as much as poss and says I should too.

That’s fine as I do as much as I can for him already. But my mum is making it worse I think. She says I should do little things around the house, her main thing is sweeping the yard.

Since it’s summer. There’s no leaves in the yard, it’s very minimal. So I don’t know why she is so focussed on this. There’s bigger things to worry about.

I’m super stressed out myself and just think it’s such a silly thing to focus on. I’m trying to work as much as I can. But my mum seems to think that I am there to do all of her chores and my dads.

She’s the one not working but constantly complains about cooking and clean.

I don’t mind doing chores but it stresses me out when she insist On it being done instantly when I’m in the middle of work. And throws a hissy fit if it’s nit done.

Don’t only that but she is constantly watching shitty day time shows that irritate the hell out of me so I can’t work downstairs. As I can’t focus.

Basically she wants me to work more but constant interrupts and complains when I do.

Just needed to get it off my chest.

I know I know. Move out 🤬

Good rant. 👍

Sorry to hear that things aren’t going so awesome. It sounds like your mom is using you as an outlet for her own stress.

It’s not that she’s trying to be bossy, she’s just trying to get relief and that’s what she thinks will help.

Oh, dear, I am so sorry about your situation! Is it possible to talk to your mom about this? Would she understand? I think she demands quite a lot from you. And you are amazing that you are trying so hard! I'd have already had an argument with her. Hope things will improve for you.

Happy earth

Seems that stress is contagious. Hang in there, it'll pass.
