Need advice! my

Need advice! my mom has been sick for a year now, nothing life threatening but it makes it so that she can barely get out of bed. because of this i have had to give up a lot of things i love. also, just being in my own house makes me feel so pressured that sometimes i burst into tears over nothing. i feel fine when i am out of the house but it almost never happens because of my mom. any advice? i am desperate!

Oh DRAGON....

*gives dragon a hug*

I'm really really really sorry for you.   My first price of advice would be to relax.   Just sit and relax, drink some tea or honey water and watch the birds.   That's what always calms me down.   Look at a book, a picture book or encyclopedia, something simple.  

Do you have siblings?   Older, make a really nice dinner for your entire family with them.  Younger, play with them.  If they're like mine they'll always be waiting for you to play;)

No siblings, do something with your dad, go on a hike, build something, talk, whatever:)

I really hope this helps, *gives dragon yet another hug before poofs into blue smoke*
