what on earth is wrong with me. -- LiveWire Teen Forums

Don't let yourself get beat down with these sorts of things. Everyone has arguments with their parents, it's just a way of life. Some might have more arguments than others, but don't think that she doesn't love you or care about you. Most of the time that's exactly why they act like they do.
If you feel stressed from your jobs, then stop doing them, or try and do them less frequently. In either case, go to your mum when both of you are calm and try to have a nice orderly conversation. Talk about how stressed you get and how tiring it is for you. Being a natural mother she will care and she will understand the situation. It's more than likely she's been in a similar situation herself.
Go and revise for your exams. Your mum wants you to do well in the future, and the exams count a lot for it. If you have a lot of stress from these jobs then explain that to her, and how you wish to concentrate on your exams next week.
The most important thing is to remain confident in yourself. If you feel sad it won't help with the situation. A lot of times it's hard to recover when you feel so down, so try and do some uplifting activities or things that make you laugh. Go watch a comedy film for an hour, or play a game. Anything as long as it takes your mind off the situation.
It's not pathetic. Many people go through similar thoughts. Just talk to your mum, concentrate on school and try to have fun and enjoy yourself.

Nobody ever loses their memory.
It just gets locked away like the mad woman in the attic.
Occasionally you hear her scream,
But you don't dare unlock the door and look in.
