Every weakness that I have seems to stick out and I feel uncomfortable.

No one can make you feel bad about yourself unless you allow it.
The next time your mother starts, say excuse me, but if the point of your diatribe is to make yourself feel better by attempting to inflict damage on my ego, then I suggest you seek counseling. In the meantime, excuse me."
Then get up and leave.

I had this problem too with my parents. Every time I did something, even the littlest thing they did not agree with they would ask that we all "talk about it" then they would either sit on opposite sides of me or both across from me and say things like"Whats wrong with you" and "That is just another dumb thing you have done" Within a minute I felt like I was about an inch tall. Once I got to be an adult I would usually get up and leave the room after about 5 minutes.They would continue to talk about me after I left. My self esteem went up 1000% after I moved out on my own. We get along much better now.

Because of that reason exactly - she's your mother - the one person who knows you better than anybody else and knows exactly how to exploit your every weakness. You need some self confidence and I don't think that she's giving you that. When you are older I would suggest that you try and move away from her influence to try and build up your own self worth.
