Response to having depression.....*RANT*

So told I told my mother that I have depression. Her response was one of the most stupid responses I have ever heard “You shouldn’t have depression because you’re loved and cared about. Plus you have her (my daughter)”.

Little background: My parents have said to my face that I am “a pathetic waste of space”, “horrible mother” (which I am not, I just don’t raise my daughter the way their way) and “a disappointment”. Always saying I should have my life figured out when they didn’t find their careers until later in life...

Does this in any way seem like a loving family? No.

They kicked out my SO because he didn’t want to talk to them.. They are controlling and manipulative. Just all around toxic people and she honestly thinks that I should feel loved and wanted there?! No.

How is anyone supposed to hear this daily and think “My family really loves me and wants me to be here”

My SO and I don’t have the money right now to move and get our own place yet. Am I wrong for being mad about her response? I don’t think so.
