<human>: I've been very depressed lately and I'm currently seeing a counsellor at my college. A lot of my depression comes from my dyslexia which some times makes me feel like I'm bad at my studies. Since it is nearing the end of the semester, I have a lot of work due. Whenever I say something to my mother about how I feel tired or stresses, she invalidates my feelings by saying that she has it much harder than me so I should shut up. I just want to know what I can say when she pulls this shit on me. It's so infuriating.

Can you summarize the given text in a few sentences?
