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..

It could be a panic attack - anxiety.

Do you have another relative or close friend that can take you? Next time you feel faint or cannot breathe, you need to call 911 and have the ambulance pick you up and take you to the ER.

Take to a relative that you trust about this. It could be panic attacks, or something more serious. You could also call the doctor yourself, and tell him the problem. Explain that your mother does not believe you, and you are really scared.

Go to an hospital if you are that scared, they can not turn you away but they will contact your mother. Maybe then your mother will listen. If she still won't listen and refuses to get you medical help, call social services and explain your situation and trust me your mother will get the help you need then.

Is your dad in the picture? If so, ask your dad to take you. Or, cough alot...then she will get the picture that you aren't feeling well. Or, call the doctor, tell them your mother doesn't believe that you are having the symptoms, and get them to speak with your mother and have them tell her to bring you in. Worse case scenario, call 911, tell them you are having trouble breathing, and they will come and take you to the ER.

I'm not bashing your mother by any means...but she sounds like a ********* psycho! You need to go to the hospital. Babe, you need to ask a friend or other family member to take you to the doctor if your own mother won't. Either that, or you need to rush the urgency to your mom! Dude, that's so not cool.

call an ambulance they have to respond and if she doesnt have good reason for denying you medical care they can treat you and depending on the state your in you may be able to go to the healh department or hospital of your own accord ( without moms permission)

call 9-1-1 tell them you need a medic for your breathing problems. That should get your moms attention, I want to see her deny you treatment in front of trained profffesionals who will have the equipment to SHOW her you are having breathing problems.

If all else fails, get a trusted neighbor to drive you up to the doc. Try to find some of your mother's money and pay the neighbor to take you to the doc and back.
