@Galaxy-The-Dog Someone seriously reported this as offensive. I am shook.
This looks nice by the way. I don’t know what program you used, but it looks like spun thread.
I don’t know why your mother would say those things to you in any context :( You know those aren’t true, right?

@Galaxy-The-Dog Warning, this is long. I know you never asked for advice or anything, but it’s important that you read through this anyways :)
I really don’t know how your mom is. Or if she says this “in the moment” or casually. But either way, it’s wrong. I don’t want you to believe her. It’s not impossible to block out and not believe what your mom says. I know it’s not something you can just wake up one day doing, but it’s certainly possible to grow to do. That’s the only advice I have for you for your current situation (since I know you can’t just move away or something). It might sound like a broken record since everyone says “just don’t believe it,” but it is actually true. And it takes a long time to train your mind to not believe negative words. Decades, even.
I’m going to be real with you. I used to believe this highly negative person in my life. The things they said were pretty often and it hurt just as deep as the previous time. I didn’t know how I’d ever block it out. It took me a few years, but I realized that there are such things as lies and truths. I prioritized myself and my friends and slowly told myself that the negative words were just lies and if I believed it, I’d be letting the negative person win control over my emotions and self esteem. Not to say you don’t ever feel sad about it ever again, but don’t let it effect your self-view. That’s what’s important: Acknowledging it’s wrong, mentally telling yourself that it’s not true, and actively combatting against it with being kind to yourself.
When you’re ever in a situation when you have to block out people out, think long and hard about it. And don’t feel bad about blocking out your mom just because she’s your mom. There are situations where you should block out a parent. It’s not wrong. It’s mentally saving you. Don’t give in. I seriously mean it. Don’t throw in the towel because you think you have no control over this. That’s the first thing people want to do, but it’s damaging. You do have control. Your mind and self view is way more powerful than you think. That’s why when you have low confidence, it effects everything. Gaining self-esteem and will to control over what negative people take over is a whole new topic that I won’t dump on you right now lol. Maybe that’s for another time.
I want to point out that you were never wrong for letting your mom effect you. You were never wrong for a split second. It’s natural to want to believe what your own mom says. Especially if it’s often. Don’t beat yourself up for being in a bad situation in general. I know a lot of people end up blaming themselves, but it’s never your fault. Never. I really do love you, Galaxy. Maybe that’s hard to believe, but I wouldn’t be dedicated to a community I didn’t love.
