my mom and i don’t have the best relationship, nor does she respect my boundaries. i’ve had to ask for space today because i accidentally slept through my alarm for therapy since i decided to take a nap because i dont really sleep often anymore due to insomnia. she told me she was “ extremely disappointed and i was being disrespectful “. despite the fact i contacted my therapist after and they were fine with it and completely understood. my mother on the other hand decided to wait until my boyfriend left and come down and try to talk to me even after i asked her very politely for space using as many i statements as i could. she doesn’t respect my boundaries or feelings.

      Maybe stonewalling? Or listening to music with headphones so you can't hear her?

      I know it's probably not the best solution, but maybe you should lock your door and isolate from her. You definitely shouldn't HAVE to, but it may be the only way to enforce that boundary.

        @Starlightie the issue is we have a thing that ventilates from my room right next too my door it’s basically just mesh so the heater can heat into my room. but she talks through that to me and i had to ask her again because she was being so annoying
