This is horrible, but I think I hate my cat

I just wanted to rant for a bit about some problems I have with my cat.

We've had her since she was born, given to me and my gf from her family. We had to move away for about 2 years and recently was able to find an apartment that allow pets. So we brought her back with us.

She used to be such a calm and chill cat. Curious and very social. But since we've had her around again I think she has developed some kind of seperation anxiety. She is constantly in me face. Crying loudly all day everyday. If I try to close a door to my room or bathroom she will jump crying at it till I come out. This can go on for hours. Scratching the hell out of the door frame. I'm always trying not to trip over her since she has to be walking in my way. If I try to eat by my kitchen window she will do anything to get in my way, like climbing onto the fridge next to me so she can jump down on the table and knock everything off while crying her head off in my face.

It's gotten to the point where I have to barricade myself in the kitchen to get even one moment of peace. She will cry and scratch and bite her way to get our attention. We spend time everyday playing with her to get some energy out but it is not enough. I've tried lightly spraying her with a water bottle but that doesn't work anymore. I can't sleep, I can't take a shower or eat or close the door to my room to idk change clothes or something without her going crazy.

My anxiety has gotten so bad because I can't relax for one minute at home. I'm at my wits end. We love her and we are trying to work with her as best as we can, but I can't take it anymore. I really don't know how to fix this.
