Ok, so let me explain. I'm (20M) working as an apprentice in what I think is a high pressure environment and am able to take annual leave etc. Recently I've been working more than my 37+ hour week (not forced) and have just been feeling very burnt out. It happens. The past couple days I have been messaging my boss asking to take leave that day, apologising for the short notice. My boss has been fine with it.

Here's the problem; I'm still living at home with my mum and brothers, and my mum comes in and asks "are you not going to work again?" to which I reply "no, I didn't sleep properly and just feel burnt out". She then proceeds to mention how she doesn't sleep but she still goes to work because "she has to". I turn around and fire back " I'm not calling in sick, I'm taking my permitted leave. Are you saying I'm not allowed to take leave?". She then leaves the room.

Here's where the problem gets more complicated. Things at home mean that my dad's out of the picture and my mum works and looks after my younger brothers. I pay rent and help out when I'm around, and it's safe to say she is busy. I then feel like because I am off that I can't relax because she "is" working and doing stuff. It seems stupid I know but ultimately I don't want my mum to struggle and will help if she needs it. We've had these arguments before where she says that she still works when she doesn't feel like it etc. and she gets very annoyed when I take leave. But my leave is for me to do what I want with right? Just because I'm using my leave to sit around and relax my brain and body, doesn't mean I then need to help out more?

Short story: Im taking leave (holiday) from work because I'm burnt out. My mum has a poke at me taking leave because I want to relax when she continues to do her work. I feel like this almost guilt trips me into not being able to relax so I get mad at her. AITA?
