Lately i've been really, really down. Which is already bad by itself, but my mom noticed and makes it worse. She just keeps saying shit like

,,You don't have depression, you just want attention"

,, Oh you're not depressed because you don't eat almost at all"

,,Stop being so down all the times (which is ironic because she has depression and when she's down she makes all of us feel like shit and all I do is hide in my room and cry or watch vines that cure depression)"

,,You're not trans, it's because of depression that you hate your body"

,,Being trans is only a phase(no, my phase was being cis) "

,,Why can't you at least try to make me feel better by saying that it might be just a phase" etc, etc.

I mean, I did know that she would say all the crap about me being trans before coming out, but depression? What? She herself has depression and just because nothing super traumatizing happened to me when I was little, in her head means I'm not depresded, I'm just a pessimist.

I love parents logic.
