First thing is, why is ur mum saying all these things? Do u have any reason to why she says or does things to hurt u? I mean there must be a simple answer to this.

It sounds like u dont really know where u belong as apart from w...

I would say listening to music is a good distraction for me because it makes me feel better and I can relate to the lyrics everytime. There's lots of different kinds of music I like but I mostly like ones which are more get up and dance to. There are other interests I like as well including reading ...
