Has anyone told you that?

It sounds like YOU might be disappointed in some decisions you've made more than maybe thinking that others are genuinely disappointed in you.

Let's explore why you feel that way. Take a deep breath, maybe get a glass of water and try to reflect on your situation. What do you think would be the cause of your shame? What is making you think they'd be disappointed in you?

I'm here for a few hours, I'd be happy to work through this with you a bit.

If you don't mind me asking, are you under 18? I only ask because that does make it harder to make personal life decisions on your own.

But either way, here's the thing: You can not control other people's emotions. No matter how much you succeed or fail or what life choices you make, you cannot force your mother to be disappointed in you or proud of you.

I know its hard to accept that. We all want our parents to love us unconditionally and be proud no matter what, but sometimes that's not realistic as much as that can hurt.

What you can control is how you feel. She may never support you, as hard as that is to hear. What's important now is for you to identify how you feel about yourself.

So what do you think? Are you happy with your life and choices, regardless of how she feels? If the answer is no, that's ok too. It just means there's some work to be done to get to where you're content with yourself.

do you have a counselor at school you can talk to?

You're still very young and may not believe it, however you have a lot of hope. Everyone makes foolish and sometimes bad choices when they're young. Some of my peers who seemed to have it all burned out at a young age so don't do that. You'll be fine.
