Hello there, I'm a girl from India and currently am 15 years old. It's just that, I don't know if something is wrong with me or is it my parents that are not listening to my problems. You see, I'm not that good at studies and have been procrastinating a lot these past 4 years. I sleep a lot even though It's not like i don't get enough sleep at night. My parents love me but I feel like they, especially my mom, never gives me enough privacy and doubts me about every single thing. I don't like how my dad doesn't bother to listen to my side of the story and always believes whatever my mom tells him, moderated or not. I don't know how to express myself properly and end up crying a lot and get scolded by mom for crying for no reason. I sometimes tell her my problems but it feels like she doesn't understand me, she just says that I shouldn't just cry about it and actually do something about it but the thing is that, I actually need some words of encouragement. She doesn't trust me at all, and just stops me whenever I try to prove a point, says that I'm talking back and that it's all my fault. I also lack serious confidence about stuff which results in me not being liked by people and not being able to converse properly or say right things at right time. And I feel like I may need a therapist but I'm scared of telling my parents because I just KNOW that they will say that I'm just doing this as an excuse and also wasting their money. I don't even know why I'm saying all this, guess I'm just venting out haha.
