i have quite a difficult relationship with my parents but i want it to get better. i hide a lot about my school/private life from them and recently my parents found out that i had been self harming. there was this long and hard conversation with my parents and now ive lost all trust wth them. they want to know everything and anything about me now. they stopped me from talking to my best friend once because she was a little "strange". im not allowed to go out wth my friends unless its to a cinema, or take the bus by myself or walk round my block by myself, or even wear make up. its really stressing me out and making me feeel uncomfortable in school because people critisize my parents decisions. i really want my mom and dad to be able to trust me again but i dont know how... please help .. x

For the friend "strange" part maybe your parents she something in your friend you dont? my parents wont let me talk to one of my bestest friends because my mom said shes a liar (well,i knew that but i still stuck up for her) and it turns out my mom was right,she was a terrible friend to me.But you know in your heart that shes a great person then show that to your parents! bring her over your house for dinner and let your parents get to know her better! :) As for the make-up,try a compromsie with your parents tell me if you could test out mascara and lip gloss for say,3 days so you can see how it works ya know? I just realized nwo that you didnt tell me your age which plays a key role in this.If your young say 13 or 14 its understandable some of the things your parents wont let you do because your young.All and all your parents are doing this because they love you and want to protect you! So need time a kid comes up to you and makes fun of your parents tell them to stuff it ;) lol
if you need more advice just let me know okay and good luck with your parents! :)
