Hi. So i could really use some advice with my issue. In my country there has recently been a protest against equal gay rights. I have told my mom that i am bisexual and she said many hurtful things like it's a disease and i'm brainwashed, she sent me many interviews with her views trying to change my mind and now has attended that event against lgbt. She says it's just for traditional families and she is unable to see why that would be hurtful to me. She says she loves me and it's all in my head, but that protest is full of hate and it's goal is to not let gay people marry. After the protest she came to this lgbt meeting i was at and tried to hug me, i told her to go back to that protest and refused. Now she is acting like the victim and that i'm hurting her. But i just can't keep pretending that i'm okay with all those things she has been doing, it's not just different opinions... Does anyone have advice what to do next? Should i just try to avoid talking to her? Be more understanding? Or keep trying to make her see how she is hurting me? I'm so lost.

Hey lovely,
I can’t really offer much as even though my parent wasn’t accepting it wasn’t to this extent. However I wanted to say you have a right to feel betrayed and upset and the way your mother did that was so extremely toxic. However you need to do what you feel comfortable with. If you need time to yourself do so and if you feel like you are ready to be understanding and talk to her then do it but you have to do it in your own time.
I hope this helped
