My mom has been diagnosed with anxiety and OCD, and while I support her and have supported her for the longest time, she seems to be using it as an excuse for everything now.
I'm a senior in high school, yet she freaks out even if I want to sleep over at a friends house because she worries about all the possibilities of "bad" things that could happen.
I can't deal with it anymore. I consider myself a happy, stable, intelligent girl and when I'm around my mom she ruins everything. She fills me with anxiousness and anxiety...and I want to go out and spend time with my friends so I can have some time away from her. But even when we were at the mall, she followed me and my friends around. I'm 17.
She's worried about me driving and getting my licence, but I have to because I'm going to college/university next year hopefully, so my dad had to help me get it in secret.

My mom also refuses to take medication and denies she has a problem, but she checks the stove 15 times before we leave the house and worries CONSTANTLY.

If she won't take meds, you're not obligated to deal with her. I love you mom, but you're driving me nuts, I'm going away to college, I'll call you once a week. Bye! Oh, and if you decide to take the meds, and take them steadily for several months, I would be interested in an expanded relationship with you.

if talking with the parents doesn't change anything, give your 2 week's notice.
