You seem really into this label-goth.
You have to realize that by labeling yourself you give people a target to judge you.
So you like the goth style.
I understand because i do too, but you have to realize thats all it is is a style.
its not a lifestyle.
and thats what people need to understand.
I do not a have very good relationship with my mom.
She is very hard headed and extremely hard to talk too.
I have dealt with suicide and running away and all that stuff.
But i have come to realize that does not solve anything AT ALL.
You say your trying to change yourself.
i think thats a big problem.
if you try and become something your not.
You will just end up more unhappy
You cant change who you are for other people its just not good,
I understand your mom and family hate it but who cares they aren't you.
You can only change if you really want to change,and from your writing you don't want to your doing it to please other people,
I know that parents can be hardheaded and dont want to talk about things because they think they are write but you need to find some way to make your mom listen,
To make her realize how you feel,
Your not going to stay grounded forever,
Because they cant this is just a rough patch in the road.
grounding is not really the issue here its the mom and daughter communication.
May i suggest writing your mom a letter,
Tell her how you feel and everything,
tell her exactly how you feel thought this letter,
but do ti in a mature adult way,
If that doesnt work come to her in a mature adult fashion and talk it out.
Dont give up.Thing will get better.

I know how you feel. I'm 16 years old, and my parents still treat me like I'm 5.

In my parents eyes, I can do nothing right. The way I dress is wrong. The people I hang out with are bad. The music I listen to is bad. The way I think is unacceptable. The way I talk is uncalled for. Everything I do is failure.

I tried to talk to my parents about it, but they'd yell at me or tell me that I'm getting on their nerves. Or that I was annoying, or to shut up. They didn't wanna hear me out, but then when I didn't say anything to them, they'd get mad because I wasn't including them in my life.

I basically told them that they were contradicting themselves, and if they cared about me at all, they'd give me a chance to talk & they'd listen. To this day, they still ignore me. I try to include them, and let them know how I feel, and how I'm doing, but they don't bother to pay attention to me, so I just go about my business. I told my mom I applied for a job, and she told me "You won't get called back. You apply for jobs wrong." So, I decided that if my mom cared, she'd come around.

She doesn't ask me how my day is, how I'm doing, what I'm up to, or what I'm thinking. She doesn't ask me what I'd like to eat [I can only eat certain foods because I'm very much lactose intolerant] and she doesn't want me to go with her when they go to the store. My mom doesn't include me in her life, so I don't include her in mine.

My mom, my brother, and my dad -- make me wanna pull my hair out. They make me wanna scream. I'm usually close with my brother, but he's an idiot most of the time, and I can't stand him. The only reason why I'm here is music & friends. Without them, I would've commited suicide already, but they keep me here.

Just try to include your mom more, and if it doesn't work, then just don't talk to her at all. If she asks something, answer her. But if she doesn't have anything to say to you, then you don't say anything at all.

It's normal to fight with your mom though, especially as a teenage female. I started to have these problems with my mom when I was 12, and I gave up trying at 14. I'm 16 now. Just keep living for your friends, and your music.

Do what you want [find out who you are, wear what you want, and listen to what you want], and if your mom hates it, then so be it. You're only in her house for about 5 more years. Keep your head up.
