I feel like I just lost a battle
I was really passionate about art before college but I wasn't confident in myself to take up something that might give an unstable job so I took up psychology and I'm planning to do that for a long time. My mom always mocked me that I won't do shit taking arts and I feel so ashamed she was right. She keeps trying to make me feel like anything other than a medical job is gonna get me on the streets. For example I said that psychology is good and I like doing it and she kept going on and on at how I won't be able to do anything other than counseling in schools and that only a clinical psychologist will earn real money. I don't agree with her of course but it still hurts because she's my own mother.
I wouldn't call her a piece of shit but doesn't mean she's right either for mocking you. It's honestly normal for people to think that taking arts or psychology will not get you the big money people are expecting unless they're famous and have big clientelle. I think she just wants you to find a job where you will be fine. Don't let her control you...... reply
