If you are not frightened of your mother go to her to see if she can help; do not overstate matters as then she might think you are lying. If you have physical evidence present that to her. If you have a brother or sister try to have them there to support you. See if a close relative might take you in for a little time. Even if you are not very religious, the head of your local place of worship can help. If you are afraid for your physical safety, try to get your mother to let you stay with someone. There are many people who can and will help. All of us go through times when everything looks very dark and horrible, but we survive, often with the help of others.

Good luck.
