Bad person?

[Alicia-Korean-Soviet]

You're not "bad."

Everyone makes mistakes, and that's just a part of life. if you move on from these mistakes, you'll feel better.

If your parents think you're bad, just tell them how you truly think.

well today my mom called me a selfish and rude child and I'm starting to believe it. My line of thought goes like "what if she's right and out of sheer selfishness I can't even recognize my own selfishness?". I never really pegged myself as being self-absorbed (in fact I hate myself!) but again what if I'm so blind that I can't even see it??

When your in an argument its kinda "in the heat of the moment" when you say things.
As I said before don't let others judge you as hard as it is. You decide who you make yourself.

it wasn't in the heat of any argument, she says it all the time

I have a feeling once you get away from your mom, you'll feel alot better. I know that sounds kinda crude, sorry. The reason I say that is because when I broke up with my ex I realized that she made me feel like a really selfish person too. But when I was away from her for a while, I realized that I was letting myself believe that because she kept telling me so. Your not selfish, Drake. All of us on TFF know that except you. So try not to let her get to you...I know its hard...but thats my personal advice...

 She'll (hopefully) soon realize who is really selfish. The fact that she has to tell you and try and implant the concept in your head that you are selfish to change you for her benefit, I would say is a pretty selfish fact. I'm not here to start label people though. Walk Away. Better yet just ignore it. I know she is your mom and it seems that whatever she says goes but it is only because it seems like she has this "superiority" complex. If you Allow her to tell you these things she's just going to do it because she knows you won't retaliate. My dad does the exact same thing. Now I am in no way saying fight your mom but just use her "attacks" on you to your advantage and be defensive or "stand your ground" so to speak. If you do decide to do this stay calm and try not to raise your voice or become pro aggressive or they won't listen. If she begins to yell just walk away. If she still persists let her say what she wants in the end it is only you who really knows yourself.

She'll never realize who the selfish one is and I'm not sure who the selfish person is at this point. Only one more year before I leave town
