Context: I get very anxious around my mom…

I wonder what parents think.

My mom told me: “There’s nothing to be afraid of, I’m your mom, I’ll never hurt you” and completely dismisses my anxiety issue…

      Advice like this is the worst. Technically on point, but in the same time missing it by a few orders of magnitude. It’s like telling a depressed person to „take a walk, get some fresh air, do sports“. They know it would help, they just can’t do it alone.
