Help with building my relationship with my mom

My mom makes me so irritable and i try my best not to show it but i guess it does at times. She gets mad at me for not talking to her enough but the reason i don’t is because i can’t let go of what she put me through. She caused me to go through a really rough depression and a mental health battle on my own while she’d yell at me until the point i’d have panic attacks. I’m a good kid, I don’t get into anything i shouldn’t and i’m respectful as well as have a 97 average yet still get treated very bad. I cant let go of what she put me through and I don’t know how to work through it. I’m holding onto all this anger and emotions that i don’t know how to let out. Talking to her isn’t an option, it never worked and it won’t. I need to find a way to solve this problem without involving her but i’m not sure how :(

Hi Lexi. I'm so sorry for what you're going through. I think that you should get some kind of counseling or therapy. I think that it would really help you if you were to have someone to help you work through all the stuff that you're dealing with right now. I'll keep you in my prayers.

thank you so much for your advice. i did go to therapy for just about over a year but they didn’t help. i didn’t involve my mom in any of this so they were only worried about me telling my mom about my mental health problems and the fact that i was in therapy rather than helping me through my problems. i do want to find someone that i can talk to where they will listen and actually help me through my problems rather than go through that all over again
