This is not as big of an issue as some others that are on here, but I need to let this out. My mom is constantly spying on me. I have nothing to hide. The only reason I am bothered by this is that I like to write stories and frankly be alone. This 'feeling' just started recently. So, of course, my mom thinks I'm watching something inappropriate (which i am not), talking to people online, or just doing something dangerous, which stated before is not the case at all. I understand she is concerned for my safety, but I've reassured her multiple times I do not do any of that stuff. I'm just so tired of being on guard all the time. Why can't I just sit in my room and write? Everyone else can, yet my mom feels that she is allowed to just barge in and try to inconspicuously spy on me. I'm not stupid, in fact I'm extremely observant- due to my very quiet nature- and I notice things very easily. Ever heard the saying 'quiet people know the most gossip' or something like that? It's very much true. I'm just so tired of being on guard as I said before. I don't know what to do. I tried talking to her, but in the end I feel I'm starting to talk to her less and less. I used to talk to her about everything and I was happy about it. But then, she started spying on me. I feel so protective now of my thoughts.

It definitely seems like your mom is worried, maybe like you said you are writing alone a lot and she thinks you are sad or something. I know you mentioned you told her you're not doing anything inappropriate but have you ever tried to show her what you write and try to explain that it is a relaxing time for you? A quiet space for you to think. Just a thought, maybe if she can see that you are doing that to take care of your mental health she might be a little less invasive??? I am sad to hear that you are getting guarded with your thoughts so that is why I am suggesting to just show her once and then see where it goes. Another thought is, do you think your mom misses you? I don't know just playing devils advocate. You could also write your mom a letter explaining why you are alone and on computer if you'd rather not talk. I hope this helps you and if you need to talk call or text us anytime at 888-222-2228. -
