    Splatmate,
      
    Show your mum what you can do for yourself and surprise her :) 

    I'm suggesting searching for new places to visit and activities you would enjoy doing with your mum because you sound fed up at the moment. These are small steps towards independence, getting used to new people and discovering hidden talents. 

    I love train journeys and trams too, looking out of the windows at our lovely countryside and animals makes me happy and stops me worrying about little things.

    Hey everyone. I know this topic can be frustrating. I don't think @Splatmate24 meant her words to be seen as rude @Lou67. I can see from her posts here that this is something she deeply cares about and it's something that is really frustrating them. I hope you don't mind me saying that Splatemate. 

    I know when I was struggling with my Crohn's disease I often heard the same advice again and again, despite it not working for me. It could sometimes be difficult to not get frustrated at it, even though I knew the person meant the advice entirely in good faith. 

    Remember, we're all here to help each other, we all have different experiences of life.

    Splatmate,
     
    Take small steps towards the independence you want - could you be responsible for the menu of the day or the packed lunches or be timekeeper for a day? Do something different or differently if you want to see change. Doing something for another person or a pet makes us feel good and valued. 

    There's a big world outside to discover new activities, new friends and your hidden talents. Try and try again is how we get better at anything. Being polite, friendly and patient with everyone you meet is my top tip for improving your chances of getting into a long-term relationship. It's impossible to like every single thing about anybody but you can trust your mum to know who's nice and who's not for you.

    Sounds very frustrating @Splatmate24, I can understand why you feel fed up about the situation. Sorry that you got cyber bullied too, that doesn't sound nice at all. And lots of horrible colds and coughs going around that make things even harder when you're trying to meet people!

    I'm not sure I have any more advice to share today, but we're always here to listen when you need to rant about things. I'll keep thinking to see if I can come up with any more suggestions you could try.

    Hope things start getting better for you soon!
