Is it normal for my mom to call me worthless and a disappointment?
I'm 18 years of age, recently graduated high school and living with my family. My mom has been telling me that I'm worthless for a few years now. I am not a bad kid, I'm an average kid but not bad. I do not go out to parties, I do not drink, I do not do drugs, I did not get into trouble at school, I have manners, teachers loved me, etc. However, my mother tells me that I am worthless and compares me to other people's children (ex: "Other people's children clean the whole house and feed their family and what do you do??? My daughter is worthless!!"). I admit, I forget to do chores now and then but the fact that she calls me worthless and a disappointment doesn't feel right. She'll also cry and scream to God for a new daughter when she's feeling super vocal.
