Toxic relationship with my mother
I and my mother are fighting since 2015, it has been 10 years. Now the thing is my mother is a very good person and loves me so much. But she has alot of fears in her life. Something is either wrong or will turn out wrong. There has never been emotional support. NEVER. Never ever she had said you do it I am with you. Never ever she had said celebrated my success. She is not happy in her life. It also transcended to me. Now I am also not happy. I am just UnHappy Sad and don't wanna do anything. Somehow in all these fights I have become like her. I used to stay happy laugh make silly jokes. Now I don't see any turning back. I will have to live like this.
I don't see any way out to be happy again. Tell me if I can do something. Please.

I too have the same with my parents. I distanced myself because I am already suffering mental health issues. Creating boundaries is really important when it is affecting you so much, I learned this thing very late in my life. We can't change them I tried and I gave up. I accepted the fact. Stay outside in some other city and maintain a healthy conversation over call if you want peace. Don't fight don't bring the topic where you start an argument.
You can buy everything in life and people come in and go but the only thing that's constant is your parents. Make peace with them; if needed, get your Mom to a psychiatrist and cure the inhibition and you will see a completely transformed mother, after curing it.
