So yesterday I came home from being away all weekend, and I was really sick, I had a migraine and last night I spent my whole night in the bathroom. So I was talking to my mom and she took away my computer because I failed english, and I told her that the computer was not the problem. She said that I need to stop being so self-absorbed, and that depression is no excuse for failing school. She was complaining because I don't talk to her anymore and I told her that it's because the only time I talk to her, she ends up yelling at me. She said it's the only way to talk to me. I asked her if she thought it was a better idea to punish me than get me help, and she was like how do you want me to help, and I told her find me a therapist. She also said that I'm exactly like every other teenager, and that she does know how I feel because she's been through it. Well obviously she doesn't know how I feel if she treats me like this. But here's the fun part. Her cure for depression: "Suck it up and deal with it." Ok mom, you try to live like me for a day. She says it's not good for me to go on this site because I talk to other people who cut and it makes me think about it all the time, and "dwell on my problems." I think about it every minute of the day no matter if I go on pc or not! I told her it's a support site, but she doesn't believe me. She just can't get it through her thick head that the computer is not what's causing my problems. She is in complete denial, and won't listen to anything I say. I am so sick of her, this is the last straw with her. I am f-ing fed up with her, and I can't wait until I get my license because I'm running away and I'm not coming back.
edit: Also this morning, after I told her I hate going to school because I hate being bullied today, she said "You need to toughen up."
