I feel like my life is such a waste, all I do is make everyone around me feel sad or angry. I don't want to be here anymore. I hate being around people I wish they would all go away. I try not to think like this but I can't snap out of it! I lay in bed at night and think bad thoughts and I can't stop myself. They would all be better of with out me in their lives.

Are you taking your meds like you are supposed to?
Oh, and be sure to tell her you are uncomfortable and do not like meeting with her. (I heard worse from a couple of my clients.) You are not supposed to LIKE counseling. It isn't a tea party.

No I don't want to they make me feel sick mum makes me take them In Front of her but I just pretend I do then spit it out. It doesn't matter if I tell her I don't like meeting with her I have no choice I don't get to make any choices in my life!

Can someone just explain to me how taking medication will help me how talking to a counsellor will help me? I asked mum and she just said because it will. I don't care if I hurt myself I. Just sick of hurting everyone around me. I don't like lying and I hate being lied to but I didn't feel like I had any other choice!

You haven't given the meds and the counseling enough time. How long have you been on the meds? and how many times have you gone to the counselor? Rome was not built in a day. You don't mix up cupcake batter, pour it into the little paper cups, and then take them out of the oven when they are halfway done. You are patient and wait and do it right. And no one is lying to you.

I took them for 2 weeks and I've been to counselling a few times now. It's a waste of time all of it, it doesn't help. I don't want to talk about it I just want to forget about it. I want to be like I use to be I don't understand why I feel like this I just feel all this pressure take your pills talk to a councillor my head wants to explode. I wish I could disappear but that's not going to happen! My mum lied to me I did something and she found out and she said she wouldn't tell anyone and she lied she did tell and now she made things worse.

4-5 weeks that's a long time :( counselling sucks but like I said I have no choice the only choice I have there is if I talk or not. I told my mum that for my sister I know that was right and I know I had to report it, but I trusted my mum when she found out something's and I talked to her about it and she promised she wouldn't tell and she did she told the counsellor and the doctor and she made everything worse she promised she wouldn't and she lied how am I suppose to trust her now. I hate that she even found out my fault but she lied to me

I wanted to put this quote out last night but didn't get time.
What does not kill me, makes me stronger. Friedrich Nietzsche (https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/quotes/Friedrich_Nietzsche/), Twilight of the Idols, 1888
German philosopher (1844 - 1900)
Use that during the adversities in life you come across and it helps keep things in focus.
Its also the root of the more contemporary saying that going through difficulties helps build character.
People that live a charmed life as children are less equipped to deal with hardships as adults than young people who didn't. THe fact you have gives you a leg up on the others, so even as much pain as it causes you.....you can. and should use it to channel your energy into something that will be a positive for you in the long run. Courage, resolve...and inner strength.
Since I'm on a roll this moring withthe quotes....
When life hands you lemons......make lemonade.

All you can do is apologize to her. Then the best thing is to leave her alone. She doesn't hate you, she just doesn't like what you said. Most likely she was hurt by what you said. But I guarantee you that she still loves you.
Even though we are parents, we still have feelings. Our children can hurt our feelings just like your friends can hurt your feelings. You have to give her time to get over her pain.
As a parent, our feelings get hurt as easily as yours do. The only difference is that we have to try to hide it so that our children are happy. Sometimes it's not that easy.
You see, I had an issue with my daughter this past weekend. She is 20, but still lives at home. She made a choice that was not very smart. She actually ended up ruining the Easter weekend for the entire family. Her father, mother (me), her little brother, grandparents, aunts and uncles. The bottom line was that her decisions affected the entire family, not just her. What I guess I am trying to say is that even though she made some bad choices, I still love her and will love her unconditionally. Your mother is the same way. While she may be upset with you now, she loves you to the moon and back. There is nothing she wouldn't do for you to be happy. However, you have to give her some space.
Tell her you love her and that you are sorry for what you said, then leave it at that. She will get over it. She loves you.

Noon, I doubt she hates you. I doubt anything short of saying you made everything up would cause any lasting negative feelings. She just needs time to calm down.
I am not surprised this happened because you are both in very emotional states. It's fairly common in dealing with the aftermath of a trauma like you have been through. It is something to sit down talk to your therapist about at your next meeting or if you can call her, over the phone. Breakdowns and blow-ups can lead to getting all sorts of negative emotions out where they can be seen and dealt with. Now you can see how dangerous it is to bottle them up.
Think of repressing negative emotions as filling a balloon. At some point the balloon will pop. Sometimes it is on its own. Sometimes a little outside pressure causes a rupture and all that air comes rushing out at once. That's what happened between you and your mother. You are both holding so much inside and something was bound to give. It will take a while to pick up the pieces of the balloon and dispose of it, but you will especially if you give opening up to your therapist a chance.
Tell your mother you love her and are sorry you blew-up and let her calm down enough to talk.

I'm a mom too and agree that she will forgive you. She knows you are in a bad place right now and are struggling. Be sure to do what you can to put your love and apology into action by doing chores without being told and to help out with other chores too. Be visible around the house and smile once in a while. :) And stop beating yourself up!

Stop piling on the guilt. And there's no reason to punish yourself. Y9u are already doing a great job of that. It may take her a day or two or three, but she loves you and will work it out. This is why the counselor is so important -- to air out all these feelings with someone who is unbiased and whose feelings you can't hurt. Pound on a pillow and scream at it, if you have to let loose. One of my clients bought a punching bag and hung it up in the garage. She found it to be very helpful when she got overwhelmed.

She makes me so angry she said so hurtful things to me to its not fair she yelled at me first she said some hurtful things so I said some hurtful things to her I know I shouldn't have but couldn't help myself it's like I had no control of my mouth. I did everything she wanted me to I went to the counsellor I talked to her told her how I was feeling then when she comes to pick me up she yells at me what does she expect from me what does she want because I have no idea anymore. I'm so angry I just want to hurt myself I know when she gets home I'm in big trouble I've smashed my mirror destroyed my room I'm so god damm frustrated. I just want to get away from her. I want to scream and cry. I'm not going to be here when she gets home from work I don't want to be near her then more I think about it the more angry I get

You have to remember two wrongs don't make a right. And what you are doing is not right. And as easy as it is to forget at your age. Other people do have lives and feelings. You have to always be aware of that.
When you find yourself at the bottom of a deep hole with a shovel in your hand... stop digging. We have another saying... Play with fire, expect to get burned.
Yell at people enough... you can certainly expect them to yell back. Particularly people who are above you in lifes pecking order... parents, boss, Teachers...
There are times in life where its appropriate to say certain things... there are lots more times where its not... and maintaining your silence is the most productive thing you can do.
You've got a lot to deal with... but you aren't alone, she does as well. So its NOT an excuse to just let it all out. Its very counter productive and instead of getting you want you want... it takes you further away from it.
Acting in this manner isn't taking to the goal of making you a stronger person... its making you weaker because you are giving in to the more immature side of your personality.
Yelling and misbehaving is the easy way out... it takes more inner strength and thought to not always react in that manner... knowing two people yelling only feed off each others anger (like throwing more logs on an already too large fire) and nothing positive ever comes out of it... its also disrespectful to do it to an elder or anyone in a position of higher authority. And whatever moral high ground you might have had on whatever issue it was... you end up giving up.

Good rule of thumb... before you let loose with a tirade in anger... bite your lip and count to 100. You won't be as impulsive. It will take an effort to do... and its worth doing because you won't find yourself on the losing end nearly as much... and life will have a lot less drama. And yes a lot of people do cause themselves problems with how they interact with others. The good news it's a bad habit and a choice, one you can make the concience decision to change for the better.
You really are the master of your own destiny... the choices you make now and in the future will determine what options you have available to you beyond that time.

If she yells.. let her yell, don't yell back. Its hard for someone to have an argument by themself. By not yelling back... she will stop a LOT sooner. Try it... you will see I'm right. That's one way to defuse a situation where emotions are running high. Trust me...I have a temper myself....if anyone yells at me....my impulse is to yell back. But doing so most times would not be in my favor.

Years ago when my two sons took karate, the first lesson was learning how to take a step BACK (and not punch the other guy). Taking a step back gives both a chance to rethink things. There's no immediate fight. So like someone earlier said, count to 100 or even just to 10 to give yourself a chance to regroup and not immediately fight back.
It does get easier as you do it. :) And when you do sound off, use "I" statements -- "I'm frustrated/angry/upset because...." or "I feel so...." Saying "you this" and "you that" is blaming and fires up more anger in both of you.

Clear this with the counselor -- does she report everything to someone, especially to your mum? In counseling school, we were taught that we had to clear it with even a minor client that we (or the client) needed to tell a parent or guardian about something from a session. I don't know the rules in your country and for this agency. You don't need to have your trust eroded by the counselor, too. It's important that you trust her, even if you don't like her.

That makes me feel a lot better about your counselor. And now you're going to be very cooperative and make us all proud of you, right?????? ;)

First day back at school wish it was still the holidays I really don't want to . I still got three hours before I have to catch the bus can't go for a run to clear my head because its pouring with rain outside. I really don't want to go back to school it's freaking me out the thought of having to deal with everything. I told mum yesterday I didn't want to go but she said I have to! I'm thinking of skipping but I have to at least go to home room or they text mum that I'm not at school. I don't know what to do I'm trying not to think about it just want to be able to get up and go.

Remember what I had said--you don't owe anyone an explanation. "Please respect me. I'll tell you when I'm able to."
Meanwhile, if you feel tapping on your shoulder, that'll be me. ;)

Ever have one of those moments when you wish you could turn back time! Wish I could do that. I don't know what's wrong with me it seems every choice I make is the wrong one I know in my head what I should be doing but always chose the easier option, which never really is the easy way as it always leads me to even more trouble. Wish I had someone who could just tell me what to do, don't suppose that would make a difference either though seeing as I don't really like it when people tell me what to do. Why are thing always so complicated or do I just make things complicated.

All the time! But I forge ahead regardless and try not to do it again.

Okay. Tell us. What is going on?

Everyone your age makes wrong decisions all the time... (that's what parents are there for, to help you learn to make the right ones). But adults make the wrong decisions as well... some more than others... I don't know ANY who have not made a bad decision in the last month or two much less the last year or more.
What matters more than the fact that you made a wrong decision... is that you learn from your mistakes to not make them a second or third time.
Believe me... there are adults that never learn that lesson. Look at people who have been married 3 or more times as one example.

Oh heck, 'YAWN', what else is new with you No one ?
Let me wave my wand and your family will go away, and you will be homeless, witih no money or connections. OK.
Have you ever seen homeless people on the streets of Toronto with their sleeping bags and pets with them. Oh, wait, now they are in parks but they still can't wash.
Oh, wait again, you dont like people, living in a park in a tent with a pet would not be for you. You would have to live under the Gardiner Expressway in the garbage with maybe Rob Ford.

Well I guess it's nice to know I'm not the only person out there to make the wrong choices. I try to make the right decisions but I'm too much of a coward to do the hard things and always chose the easy way. And then I get myself into even worse situations. No wonder why my mum is so disappointed in me. God I hate that word I'd rather her be mad at me

I don't want my family to go away. I know I have a good life. I do like people. I don't want to be a burden to my family anymore just want to have the courage to make the right choices and not disappoint people in my life. I have seen homeless people and I appreciate the fact that I have a home to live in and are taken care of. I know some people are not so lucky and I shouldn't complain about my silly little problems thanks for reminding me that

You are welcome. Most of us here come from a simpler time and we had minor growing up problems, but we got through them to be fully functioning worthwhile adults. You will too.
