I'm 16 and I am attending a sixth form. I have anxiety, depression, insomnia and stress issues. My mum only knows about the insomnia but has no clue about the others. I only have my mum, my dad is no longer in the family picture. I have a younger brother who is 15 and has his own issues. I am a young carer for my mum. I have secretly been attending counselling sessions for myself. I attend these sessions secretly that are offered in the sixth form. I just feel so restricted. I feel so down all the time. I feel upset with everything and everyone. I don't know what to do with myself sometimes. I have mental issues and I am finding it hard to control myself or confide in others. I have self harmed in the past and I promised myself I wouldn't do it ever again. I am just so tired. I am tired of everything. I am tired of everyone. I want a break. I am tired of being restricted, limited. I am tired of living like this. I am tired of being me. I have found things VERY hard to cope with lately.... But today, my mum read a conversation of that I had with a friend of mine. Some of the things I texted my friend about had made my mum upset. She told me how she is disappointed, ashamed and upset. She brought up my dead grandpa (who she knows, was my hero) and told me how she will not allow me to disrespect him. She mentioned (even before this) that, trust is like a mirror, once it breaks, you can repair it but there will always be those cracks in there. She said that our 'mirror' has cracks in there. She even compared me to my abusive father and said that I must have taken something from him. She has been stressed out because of my brother (who she found out, self harmed). She said that she has given up dreaming for my brother and now she has given up dreaming for me. I feel like shit. How could I do that to my mother? I feel like a disappointment. She no longer trusts me. I feel angry with myself. I am supposed to be there for her, the only one she could go to, her hero. I feel like nothing. I can't cope. I can't do this anymore. Help, please? Wat should I do? What should I do?

Why can't I express my opinion to my professor?
Everytime I try, he just shoots it down without even listening to me. He thinks video games are the cause of everything and can't think positively about them. I...

I would just talk to your mother and make her listen to you. Iām very sorry that this is all happening but I hope you know your worth and that people love and care about you and you are a wonderful person who is strong enough to overcome your own problems. We all have things we are dealing with so I hope you know you are not alone. Things will get better, I promise!
