I feel like my mother doesn't love me as much because I am struggling with depression and because I have gained weight and am not graduating on time. She lives hundreds of miles away though, and it would be pointless to ask because she would never tell me the truth. But I wonder if it is possible.

Please do not mistake your mom's emotions as a lack of love.
Mom's never quit loving their children. Once you have children, they become your life, you don't know what even existed before they came along. They are that wonderful. All kids face struggles and parents hurt with them and for them but ALWAYS LOVE them. I promise. Treat her like a best friend and she will be exactly that. She is there for you.

I pray to God that she DOES love you. But if you feel that she doesn't, I beg you to talk to someone about it. A close Aunt, your Grandmother, your best friends mother, your doctor or your priest. PLEASE!!!
Here is why I said that....
I'm sorry to say that the others here are not totally correct, BUT I am so glad to see there are so many that really LOVE their kids, you are great ladies!!! Yes a mother SHOULD love her children unconditionally, but it doesn't always happen. My mother's hated me since i was 13 years old. No I wasn't a bad kid, I did all I could do to please that woman, but it didn't matter what I did, it wasn't good enough. I moved out when I was 15, quit school, got a job and have been supporting myself ever since. And to this day, I feel that no one will ever love me, I mean, if my own mother doesn't why would anyone else. It has caused me a lot of pain in my life and I do NOT want that to happen to you. Again. please talk to someone, let your feelings out, do not keep them inside, this is probably why you are depressed. Go talk to your doctor or your priest, they will help you, and they will NOT judge you! I am so very proud of you for coming on here with your question. I wish I had this place back then. Remember, it is NOT your fault you feel this way, it is your mothers. You are a good personand you DESERVE to be loved.. totally loved, unconditionally. Work through this and move on with your life. Go meet a wonderful man and let him into your heart. I want you to feel real love. I finally did and believe me when I say that there is nothing like it, there is nothing better... go for it! God Bless you and keep you safe.
Oh and btw.. I have a daughter of my own and I love her with every cell of my being. I'd do anything for her, no matter what! And I make sure to tell her that I love her every single day and I hug her as I tell her, she will never feel as I did!!!

i think of that's achieveable in some families and that's probablly greater or much less elementary given particular situations and cultures. Tom P, have you ever no longer something greater appropriate to do with it sluggish? i've got had a rapid look at a number of your solutions to different questions, get some friends, hobbies, pursuits or a job in case you purely use Yahoo solutions to pass somewhat time by appearing like an fully senseless 12 twelve months previous.

Parents never stop loveing their kids.
You know your mom might not have the ability to show her love or it comes out in ways that make you don't feel loved.
If you are struggling with depression maybe she does too.
I hope you are getting professional help.
In life we all long from love and when it comes down to it that initally we feel other people will save us with their love. No one can save us but us. Other peoples love add to our self. But we can't depend on it, because we are all human. Thus, your mother loves you but doesn't know how to tell you and doesn't know what you need from her.
Kids.....get this....your parents were kids not long ago, no one have a guide book of how to be a parent.
I do hope that you can puss out of your depression soon. Exercise and being outside in the sun are the two best ways to overcome depression. I now it is hard for you, but you do have a choice in life to be misserable or happy.
I also believe that the more love you give the more you will get. Have you tried reaching out to your mom with love?
Make healthy loving choices hon and the world will be a better place.

If one of my kids became a mass murderer, yeah, in a heart beat. It's easy if you try.
Part of your depression makes you feel like no one loves you, not even yourself.
For anyone with any emotional problem, I must recommend wwwe.emofree.com and if you download the free manual, and it makes sense, buy the $60 videos.
My son is in medical school, and he has social anxiety and depression. I can tell the difference over the phone since he started EFT.
It is amazing. Craig got into this. As an engineer, he was horrified that the mental/emotional health industry is totally worthless. They have nothing but dangerous chemicals. When he learned about EFT, he decided to try to spread the word. he has cured vets in vet hospitals who had PTSD for decades, in one day!!!!!!
You can be sure the current mental health folks will try to stop this, because it could put them out of business.

I have tried very hard to do just that.I have 7 boys and 1 girl .And I will just have to confess as much as I would like to at times.I have failed miserably in this department .And I thank God for it . I also have 14 grandchildren that make me sparkle.I think we parents just use this tactic when all else has failed.I would like to also encourage you to seek treatment for your depression.Sometimes if one antidepressant does not work tell your doctor so he can prescribe something else . I assure you it will be worth the effort.Also your local church often provides free counseling.I pray God will bless you . And remember to let your mom know that you love her.It really hurts when your children don't love you.

I have two daughters and I don't think I could ever stop loving them. They are young now, but even if they were to grow up to be crack-heads (God forbid), I would still love 'em. Maybe she doesn't know how to express her feelings to you. She may just be disappointed that you aren't graduating on time. Don't let this ruin your life. You obviously have issues you're dealing with...concentrate on yourself, then have a heart to heart with your mom. Lay all your feelings out on the table and you'll see that she still loves you.
Good Luck.

No if someone could stop loving someone that they brought into this world then something is wrong with them parents may not always agree with what their child does but I don't think they never stop loving

Never, never can the parents stop loving their own children, howsoever far they may be. They always remain close to their heart. Do not worry about it. Whenever you get a chance, do keep communicating with them.
