Do you know why your mother is refusing consent?

I don't think that would work, only because I think birth control can be given without consent, but other medications have to have consent if you're a minor. And she's refusing consent because of two reasons. 1) She doesn't believe in them (not for a religious reason. Just doesn't think they're useful)and 2) She says that I've tried so many medications that it's basically useless to try more. I've been on Wellbutrin, Lexapro, Vistaril, Zyprexa, Trileptal, Neurontin, and I currently take Norvasc for hypertension, which my therapist said might help with the bipolar, but I'm not sure.
