How can I stand up to my mom after she freaks because I cut myself? (Not the fir!


Question: How can I stand up to my mom after she freaks because I cut myself? (Not the first time)?
She's always yelling at me and putting me down, really painful and personal stuff, and yesterday she found out I had cut myself again and she has decided to do a strip-search on me. I haven't tried to yet, but I'm pretty sure she'll decide she has to watch me while I shower. So how can I stand my ground and just tell her to leave me alone? Refuse to be stripped and force her out of the bathroom while I shower? I always give in, and I don't want to let her run over me, but she does buy my food and clothes, she pays the bills and buys me things I want. I just don't know what to do!

Answers:

she legally can't make you do strip searches. If you really can't stand living with her, you could always go to childrens aid and let them know that she forces you to be naked in front of her. She legally is not allowed to do that. No offence but that's sick of her to do to you, when i was in the mental hospital for cutting they didn't even do that to me, meaning your mom really shouldn't. call the kids help phone, they'll help you get help



ok first of all anyone who wants to see you while you shower is ****** up in the mind.the only thing i can think of is to tell her that the only person who controls you is yourself and make sure to be firm but if that does not work tell her **** you and then grab your stuff and leave



F U WANDERER!!! thats offensive to everyone who cuts and used to cut, were not emo cuz we cut, apparently you don't care that most cutters have depression and 1/4 of them go suicidal, f off ahole :P



First of all, STOP cutting yourself! It is dangerous, a bad habit, and you are at risk of infection. You might have to do a strip test for a few weeks, but once she sees that you AREN'T cutting yourself anymore, she will leave you alone. She might do a strip test once a week though, just to be sure. But don't go cutting yourself again. If you really want to feel pain(which is weird), then leave a rubber band on your wrists and snap I once in a while, when you feel that you need to. But don't go back to cutting yourself again. It is a sign of no self respect, and you don't want people thinking of you that way, do you? Good luck...
