Do you an aunt or grandmother or someone who you can talk to about this. A family member who knows your mother and may have a understanding of why she is treating you this way would be a good person to talk to. It sounds like your mother has some issues that are severely affecting you.

It can also be that you misinterpreting what she is saying. You can be twisting what she says. I am not saying you are purposely doing it, but unintentionally. If you are cutting and feeling suicidal, you can be depressed and that is what is causing you to feel like your mother is putting you down.

If you do not have a family member to talk to, try a school counselor.

Wow what a **** she is.

DON’T BELIEVE HER. You are a beautiful person inside and out. Everyone has something about themselves that they need to work on but it doesn’t lessen your value. If you mom is criticizing you all the time, know that it’s HER fault not yours. She doesn’t know how to be a good mother to her child when you need her the most.

Find someone in your life (a family member) that can be an encouragement to you and let them know about the situation.

I have found that when anyone puts me down, it’s to make themselves feel better.

Do NOT listen to negativity. Criticism is one thing, but telling your child that he/she is ugly is just CRUEL and WRONG!

Please realize you are a wonderful person and you don’t need to even listen to that stuff.

Shut it out of your head. Tell yourself you are you, and your Mom may want you to be one way but that is not the way you feel. As long as you take care of yourself and dress appropriately (for school, outdoors, etc.) she may not know what the other kids are wearing and their hairstyles.

My dear people will taunt you the best way they can but what you believe and what you tell yourself determines how you will carry yourself in front of them. I would like to know if you did not show your weakness in front of them they will be tired and let go of you.So please be strong.
