Struggling with Parental Expectations

my parents expect me to function like a normal person. i don’t know what to do sometimes. i don’t know how to keep going while having to be told everyday that i need to try harder. i’m tired and i cant try at all some days. as soon as i have one good day i’m expected to have everyday be a good day. it’s like i’m always disappointing them and they always get mad at me and idk what to do

i get you u.u its especially hard when you live with ur parents, and they see u everyday and expect SO much from you. majority of parents don't understand mental health and dont consider it for their children, they see it as us being lazy and finding excuses. my mom treats me the same way, i just try to avoid her as much as i can and keep talk small :c im sorry ur going thru this
