Hey my beautiful cocky friend @utopia I agree with you - if no single individual stands up for what is wrong then nothing will change. You have every right to feel as you do and want things to be better - for everyone - as well as yourself. I also agree that your mother seems to be viewing the facts from behind a selfish lense. ...and as for anger - that is not an emotion that should be minimised or rejected - it is an emotion and you are quite in your right to feel that. You have been through so much and you yourself know the difference between anger, anxiety and stress - so trust yourself.
I am going to however remind you of just how fr you have come. Wht you are feeling now is uncomfortable and intense but you have been through so much over the years I have know you - you have fought that bureaucracy (and won), you have raised your son and you have been a voice for many on here to fight for their own rights and needs. Do not let your mother reduce your current state to JUST MI - compasssion and kindness for those suffering with so much throughout the world should be at the forefront of eeryone's mind ...and if your mother cannot come along for that ride then do it on your own ...because one voice can lead to a chorus and you matter
