My mom wants to force me into psychotherapy and pills?
my mom took me to a hospital because i was feeling sick. they started to get into my life ’so.. do you like your mom?’ ‘do you think youve coped with the loss of your father?’ its been two years since hes died. ive left it behind me. yeah hes dead, and im not crying my eyes out about it anymore. iive got tons of friends i laugh i have a normal schedule and i get good grades in school. well now my mom got a psychologist to see me and i told him im over it and that to be honest it doesnt really bother me because i know hes somewhere better. the guy said i need pills. 2 pills. my mom takes one of them i forgot the name but she gave me it like a week after my dad died (its for depression) and i was highly emotional the whole week (it suckedo-o) so now he wants to hook me on that and some other thing that i seriously dont even need. he gave me one and i hid it under my lip but the fact that my mom believes some guy who met me for 5 min looked me in the eye and said i needed help really pisses me off. i.am.fine. i dont need to talk to anyone or go into little groupies and discuss my life to a bunch of depressed kids ive never even met. helppp me ): im perfectly happy with my life, my friends, and my school. i dont need this to ruin everything

I think that if you grieved for your dad, and after 2 years are coping and getting back to your life, that sounds like a healthy road to be on. I am not questioning you here, or should I say judging you, but is there another reason your mom feels you might have other issues regarding your dad’s death? I think your mom might be having a more difficult time coping and maybe she can not understand you moving on with your life. Why not ask her to get a second opinion for you if she insists you take medication. I agree, unless a therapist does not do a full, comprehensive evaluation, they should not be so quick to throw pills at someone.Is there an adult, or older family member that could help you talk to your mom? I personally would be very skeptical as a mother to want my child to take med’s unless some very obvious abnormal behavior was being displayed by my child. I hope you can find a professional who will take the proper time to re-evaluate you. You sound like you have a healthy perspective in resuming your life.
