Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I am a 40-year-old female. In my whole life, I could not find a single incident to convince myself that my mother loved me. She has no motherly emotions for me. I always tried hard to make her happy and get some affection, but in return, I always got criticism and hatred. She always gives me pain. I am sad and depressed. What should I do?
Kindly help.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Thank you for your query.
I understand your concern. Mother's love is one of the most important things in one's life. There is a saying a child can be bad or good, but a mother is always good, nothing else. So maybe there is some misunderstanding between you both. Maybe she does not express it the way you expect her to. I would advise you to talk to her. Communicate with her directly, arrange a dinner, only two of you, then start gradually. May there be much more to your story that you could not describe in the query; if something else is bothering you, you can always discuss it with me.
I hope this has helped you. Thank you.
