Motherly Love

It can be very difficult for me sometimes to explain my relationship with my mother. All too often I am told "well she's your mother you should love her", well believe me that is far easier said than done. All too often people who know my mother approach me and say I should be in contact with her, but without knowing my side. Why should I maintain contact with someone who has not contacted me in over 6 months, and only contacted me for help fixing her internet, to cap it all in the two texts she sent me she didn't ask how I was or what I was doing. I gave up contacting her when after several years I realised that it was only me initiating contact. I still get angry about it and frustrated than when she asks for help after months of non contact that I do what she wants and not what I want. All of this adds up to frustration and a trigger for my depression.
