Long story short, i havent been able to breathe properly for the past few weeks. Not bad, but just enough to make my chest feel really tight. Yesterday, i asked my mother to take me to see a doctor. She said no, that i was faking it. Today, i was stressed, and actually fainted. No one was home at the time, and I could barely breathe. I asked her again, to take me to the doctor later this afternoon. But no, she refused because there are no physical signs. I don't know what to, im not faking it. I have no reason to fake it, considering im homeschooled, so it's not to get out of school, and i have no job, so it's not to get out of that. I'm really scared about this, and i've talked to her but she refuses to believe me.. What do i do? I have no way of getting to the doctors without her driving me, im only 15. I'm scared something bad will happen..

Call an ambulance. Don't wait for her to take you to the doctors. It's better to be safe than sorry.

That needs to be taken seriously if you really do think something is wrong with you. I don't know why your mom would refuse to get you medical attention but if this continues keep asking her. I would call the ambulance for myself if I thought my life was in danger. I'm not sure what law enforcement or some type of legal authority might if they knew your mom refused to take you to the doctor with something serious though if someone found out. Be careful and I hope your mom changes her mind. Good luck..

Hi there
I really feel for you. I think it is terrible that you are being treated this way. I could not imagine neglecting my children like this.
I am not sure what country you are from but I am sure most places would have a number you can call to get medical advise and suggestions on how to handle this. I am from Australia and we have kids help line and direct medical number which are toll free to help situations exactly like this. If you do not have this available to you call 911/ooo or your emergency contact number and let them help. Not being able to breath could be a result of so many things and need not be taken lightly. Hope this helps.....

much of what you describe stems from an acute anxiety episode, are you breathing rapidly? If so in all likelyhood youre hyperventilating, in so doing youre breathing out too much carbondioxide. This causes certain chemical changes in your blood that makes you feel short of breath. If you relax these sysmptoms will subside and you will resume breathing normally. If you are unable to do this take a paper bag and hold it in your hand as if you were to blow it up, THEN I WANT YOU TO BREATHE INTO THE BAG UNTIL YOU BEGIN BREATHING NORMALLY.
IF THIS FAILS I WANT YOU TO CALL 911 AND TELL THE EMERGENCY OPERATOR YOUR SITUATION
YOU WILL BE FINE

Is there an aunt or neighbour or cousin who can take you? If not, dial 911 and get an ambulance to take you to the hospital the next time you have breathing or fainting problems.
Good luck.

That is horrible! your mum should be taking you seriously and taking you down to the doctors straight away!
Tell her "what if something happens to me, you would regret not taking me then"
Can you catch a taxi at all?

It bothers me that she won't take you. If you have a trusted female adult friend or other female family member in your area I would recommend talking to them to see if they can help.
