I don't understand why my biological mom that I barely even know is treating me like I'm five. She is mentally destroying me. She called me low life because I attacked this guy who touched me in appropriatly and it was a rerun of my past. She still is telling me I'm not capabale of anything. I just want to run and get away. What should I do? How do I cope with this?
I've got a ton of info together on what I need to get emancipated but my mom found the papers that I needed and locked them in her fileing cabniet. I just don't understand her.

Get another set of papers.

I agree with the previous answer. Can you get another set of papers sent to a friends house so your mum couldn't find them

Like the two before me, get the papers again. And just do it. You don't need a person like that dragging you down, hon.

No there is no way that I am aware of. I really want to get out so badly I just can't get it together again. If I had the papers still and it started processing all I would have to do is make one phone call and I would be on my way to a place where I can stay and pay rent go to school and have a job I was already doing all of this before I even met my mom but things happened and now I am stuck here with a mom telling me that I'm not capable of anything and that I'm low life and that she understands me because she went through what I am going through and none of it is true and I just can't stand it. I cry myself to sleep at night because I am in so much mental pain. I'll lay down about 8 or 9 and not be able to go to sleep until about 11 or 12. I just don't know what to do.

Make a call to child protective services. This is abuse.

Yes I know but the thing is, is that CPS just got out of our lives and I can't call CPS because I don't want my little brother and sister to go through this and see what is going on. That and my little brother told his counsler that the thing he is afraid of right now is that I will leave again.

Your brother and sister if they don't know already they will soon enough. Do you want what is happening to you to happen to them

No. I try really hard not to let my mom treat my little 9 year old sister like she does me but if I say anything she yells at me or my grandpa or something happens to me. She tells my little sister that she is stupid and is slow and all this other stuff to where my little sister crawls in bed with me at night and tells me everything and I soothe her by telling her that she's not. And my little sister does know that I'm leaving because she heard me on the phone talking to a bunch of people and courts about what I needed to do. And it was so bad that she asked me if I could take her with me.

More of a reason to get some help.

Yes I know. But I am afraid. And to me there is a difference between being afraid and being scared. I am scared of a lot of things and not afraid of very many things. I just don't think I can win this battle without hard sturdy proof and I don't know how to prove it because my mom, step dad, and grandpa will fight against me. I can get more than 5 recommendation statements from all the people who knew me in Arizona and from all the people who know me here. I just con't pull myself togther long enough to do it.

Yes I know I'm just afraid of it. I can't keep myself togther long enough to go through with it. I can get recommendation letters from almost every parent I know. I just keep getting caught in the process
