My Mom and I aren't close. My oldest sister is very close, and me and my other sister are close to our Dad. Its always been that way. I was in my parents room and my Mom and me were talking and I started being honest with her. After I came home from the mental hospital, my parents were very over protecting me. They went too far by telling our neighbor, who lives behind us, to keep an eye on me. One of my friends lives behind us as well, I have to walk a ways but that's fine. I was walking with my "bad-boy friend" and they told my Dad that I was walking with some older guy. This old fuck seriously was pissing me off. For 2 weeks this asshole was watching me! All because of my parents. Anyway, I told my Mom, during the convo from tonight, after that little stunt that they pulled, I was seriously anxious to turn 17 to emancipate myself. She turned back at me, and asked, "Are we that bad? So bad that you wouldn't claim your us as your own parents?" I felt very bad. I told her, and this is true, everytime I'd go out I would have to play 20 Questions before I left and when I got home. I get that she worries. My Dad yelled at me for even thinking about questioning their parenting. He said that when you have to send your kid to a mental hospital, that's when they as parents need to be protective. I respect that but you can't corner me everytime I go out. They have the trust problem. I felt bad that my Mom was hurt. She told me when I turn 18(hense I'm 16) , I can start planning on moving out. Not just go party, skip school, its the real world. She doesn't want me to end up like my sisters. Depend on my parents to fix their cars, pay their bills and what not. I will tell you this much, I won't end up like my sisters. My goal is to be more sensitive towards my Mom.

    you earn trust.
    you don't just get it.
    and if you don't understand that, then yes, you're not very grown up.
     
    if you had earned their trust in the past, it wouldn't be a game of 20 questions every time.
    the fact that it is should tell you clearly that they are afraid totrust your judgement and decisions.
     
    if my daughter were 16 and had ended up in a mental hospital, i'd feel exactly the same way.

    I just did a post about 21. But 16 is an intense age too. And everything at that age seems as if your life is (Pardon what I'm about to say) going to end if things don't go the way you want them too. But I'll tell the following to you. Life is what you make it. And it's more fun to LIVE. You are young. Go see the world,go travel,there is so much out there. Life is bigger than your front door and your life it is around you and beyond you.
     
    What you feel is overboard is what we parents call worry. And Secret is right you have to earn that trust back. I don't like to say that but it's kinda true. Give them a bit of break on that front and show them that you can do it. I know you can. Now make them see it. We all go to dark places it's how you come out of the other end of these places that makes the difference. Good luck and welcome1out, Show them what your made of.

I demand to know how it got here so fast, lol....
What is the cure for a loss of appetite? Recently, I cannot seem to eat much food, nor do I have the desire to eat. I am not sure why exactly, but I have experienced this in the past and have no idea how I got back to eating....
