How to get away from my mom?

[Anonymous]

I'm feeling frustrated with my mom lately. Even though I'm 18, she still bombards me with a million questions every time I go out. For example, the other night I was hanging out with my coworkers until around 12:30am, and she blew up my phone, called my sister, aunt, grandma, and even the cops, thinking I was missing. She's always checking my bank account, snooping in my room, bathroom, and car. It's been really stressful for me, and I feel like she's always in my business. While I know some people suggest moving out, it's not feasible for me right now as I'm a dental hygienist student at a 2-year college without dorms. I'm considering dropping out to become a flight attendant just to get away from her, but I'm not sure what my next steps should be.

you have to demand privacy and space from your mother, tell her that you are an adult and want to deal with your oen responsibilities and you want to have some freedom, im sure if you tell her like a responsible person, she might understand and be less strict.

18 you’re still a teen and living under her roof, she’s cared for you all your life, it’s all she knows pertaining to you, so I won’t say her actions aren’t overbearing but maybe cut her a little slack. It’s all coming from a place of love and concern in this crazy ass world, you’re very lucky to have someone who cares so much of your well-being. If you haven’t already, sit down and have a conversation with her. Try to set some boundaries and look at ways that you can compromise. Like shooting her a text to let her know where you’re going, what time you’ll be back. If it’s later then let her know. I’m sure it can be suffocating but you’ve gotta work with her until you can move out. Communication is key though, so hopefully you can talk and figure something out.

You need to move out ASAP.

Checking your bank account? How is she doing that?

Could you find a roommate and share an apartment?

it doesn't matter how old you are.
She is your mom, and that is what moms do, so just deal with it.
