I attempt to tell my mom I have social anxiety/normal anxiety

Mom: you don't have that. People with that take pills. You shouldn't make fun of them. You're just shy

Me: *laughs awkwardly* yeah

We hang up

My mind: mom I'm trying to come out to you and tell you about my mental health for once and the you push it away and say to not make fun of them because they take pills. Mom I'm trying to say I need help, I need therapy, and what you see on the outside isn't the inside. Mom I'm depressed, I have anxiety, social anxiety. Mom I'm lonely in my mind. I'm lucky my mind allowed me to make friends that I can trust, fake smile with, and that I can cry with. Mom I need help badly now. I need help from you, but you just say no of everything
