You’ve been very brave by reaching out for help here. My first suggestion would be to not stop reaching out. These are huge challenges for anyone, particularly someone your age. I realize you don’t want to talk to anyone about it, but I will recommend that you reconsider that, and talk to your guidance counselor at school. This is someone who should be able to link you to the right resources, offer suggestions, and be available for continuous support through much of the year, and act as a bridge to other means of support. I chose your guidance counselor because this is something you can do yourself fairly easily without “tipping off” your mother right away. It’s the beginning of a solution for you. I believe you will need to work with a professional who can offer good sound advice on a regular basis to help coach you through your difficulties so that it doesn’t continue to impact your life, and begins to help resolve the issues you are having with mom as well as dad. There is apparently, alot of underlying factors (I’m just guessing from your mom’s behaviours, and your dad’s heavy weekend drinking). It will take some time to sort this through, and you shouldn’t go it alone. You’ve done a wonderful thing by sharing here today and getting different perspectives. Again, I’d start with your guidance counselor at school. It’s what I’d want my son to do if he were you…I’ll keep you in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless You.
Well, it seems like you and your mom don’t get along.. obviously. Maybe you should think about writing a note to your parents, and put it in your mom’s purse. When she reads it, she will know how you are feeling. If she reads the message, and she starts to yell at you, just let her yell at you, and after you think that she is done, ask her if she finished yelling at you. If she says yes, then talk to her calmly, (it tends to bring their voices down too!) Also you should ask her why she was upset and why she always yells at you. You should try talking to your dad too. Tell your dad all the harms of drinking. Try letting him know what harm he does to the family. You should maybe try organizing activities that the whole family can participate in. You could also talk to your friend Kyle, and maybe have him come over.
it seems like you need to write your mother a letter telling her how she makes you feel, but don’t rant in your letter portray it in a calm and adult way (makes them think twice about the reply if your mature about it, if you just rant then they will just rant back) tell your mother that you do love her and you always will but when he swearers at you or calls you names it really gets you down, you feel like he doesn’t love you because she never tells you that she does and that actually it does mean a lot to you. if you feel like telling her about the self harm you should prob get it all out at once.
parent sometime try to keep their (especially mum) relationships with their daughters by trying to use the same kind of language that they use, they hear it on the radio people calling friends bitc*hes and things like and actually think it is acceptable, when daughters especially get into their teens the relationship between mother and daughter can often break down just because they really don’t know how to act they don’t want to push you away but at the same time there is no rule book so they panic and get confused to, but unless you tell them how these things are making you feel then they will never know.
remember though your mother is wrong for talking to you the way she does, you to are also becoming a young adult and despite all these hormones buzzing around your body that can change your mood in a split second you to have to respect your mother, we have all done it (in the modern day anyway) shown an amount of disrespect to a family member that after we feel a little guilty about so if you have made mistakes (your only human) you should acknowledge where you went wrong and perhaps apologise in your letter. I don’t think she will yell at you if you give her a letter because she will take time to read it and absorb what you have said to her, ask her to write you a letter back because your a little scared, it will help her to because instead of talking where words can be taken the wrong way and cause an argument she has time to think about what she wants to say to you. good luck x
First of all, please don’t do anything to hurt yourself anymore. Its not worth it and hurting yourself won’t make anything better. Your mom’s words are so cruel. You should talk to an adult you trust, like a teacher or a counselor. Maybe they can talk to your mom. What do you do that makes her talk to you that way? Your mom might need some counseling too. She is obviously not okay and doesn’t even know how to raise a teenager. You could even try calling the police when she gets aggressive. You don’t deserve to get hurt like this, sweetheart.

I see two problems: You shouldn’t be tormenting animals, and your mom shouldn’t be tormenting you.
You could really benefit from a talk with a counselor; try the one at school. Good Luck
