That is hard. I've done that. My mother was pretty abusive. I'm sorry yours is sick. But why do you feel...

I wrote the unsent letter which was bad. A child shouldn't say such cruel things about a parent. ( I gave it to therapist) She got sick when I was there and really doesn't want to live.
 
A parent shouldn't say cruel things to or about a child, either. If you've been through that, you need to process your anger, and writing it out and not sending is a good way to work on that. I've been there.
 
Maybe a child shouldn't say such cruel things, but a parent should, first and furthermost, never be cruel towards their own child. You expressed your true feelings, and that's okay. You have every right to feel the way you do - you're a person too and are allowed to have emotions and feelings. You are also, even moreso, not responsible for another person's happiness. Your mother might be sick, but as sad as it is, you are not responsible for her mental health or wellbeing. You are already trying to take care of yourself. It's okay to feel upset and frustrated. It's okay to be angry. It's okay to tell someone "Enough." It really is.

I understand why you'd feel guilty. Trust me, I've been there, hardcore. I've been upset at someone for the longest time but felt so, so guilty for being angry, because they couldn't help their behaviors - they were sick. But I realized, being sick is no excuse for making me feel like crap and treating me like a doormat. I'm a person too.

I know things are hard Snow. We're here for you however we can help!

Saying the stuff that I did. She gave me clothes, shelter and food. I look like a horrible heartless person and that's not me
 
You don't need to be sorry at all Snow. You didn't do anythign wrong. You reached out, and we're here to support you. As a supporter, this is something that I do on a daily basis, haha :P You are not a burden, friend. You are a lovely person deserving of support. Things are hard, but they'll be okay. Hang in there. We're here for you :)

Have you eaten or drank any water recently? It's important to make sure you're taking care of yourself, even if things do seem hectic.
