I have to comment before even going over any replies!

YOU sound like you have a great ability of insight! You are years ahead of me at 16. Maybe decades. A therapist will have a short, but rewarding time with you!

Your mom, on the other hand, has nearly no insight and worse, no compassion!

That said, give her a break. She is probably doing the best she can with what she has. It may not be much, but she may not be able to do better. Try to just let her have her say and then seek and consider more well thought out and compassionate ideas for your moving on yourself.

Now, to get some treatment for yourself you might have to think outside the box a bit. The resources are out there and do not require parental involvement.

Do you have medical insurance? Call them up and ask about their mental resources.

Is there a 211 social service hot line number in your community? If not, there is most likely some point of reference. You can even call the suicide hotline for help. They don't require you be poised with hemlock at your lips before you call.

Is there any teacher past or present that you felt you connected with? She/he may be more than happy to be of assistance.

Possibly a church official might help. Be careful there. They usually have "agendas" in my experience.

A runaway or homeless youth center might be of help. Their interests often extend to prevention of your becoming a runaway or homeless person, and can steer you to needed services.

Hang in there!
