The older generation don't seem to like black very much. Because black is associated with funerals, goth and everything dark and gloomy. But to us, it is sleek, cool and it means style.
She is worried. She must've had some crappy discussion with her fellow female friends talking bout teenagers and how common suicide is among us. Oh well, it happens and we do have stereotypical conversation bout them too.
Since it doesn't work out between the two of you with words, then consider proving yourself by action. Strut yourself infront of her when you aren't wearing black.
No point telling her NO MUM I AM NOT THIS..I DON'T WEAR THAT..Defend yourself with an infallible REASON.
She tells you you're suicidal, then ask her, what things other than wearing black makes me suicidal? She accuses you of wearing black everyday; you repeat her qn : E.V.E.R.Y.D.A.Y? I wear black every.single.day? Sometimes, it helps to question them bout the statements that they are making. It makes them think twice bout it.
Suicidal is so much more complicated than just wearing black.
You know you're not suicidal, OK, good enough. What you believe in will show in your actions. You've already told her you're not and your words get jarred in her ears. So? Leave it. You're making yourself angrier by repeating yourself and you're making her feel that you are suicidal from the way you get so worked up. The best way to prove yourself is either by action or by strong reasoning, and not by denying.
