My mom wants me to go to therapy what should I do?

I am really tried of my family. My parents are divorced and I have trouble at my dads house because of his drinking issues but now my mom want me to talk to a therapist about this and I know it not healthy to keep it in but that is what I have did for my whole life and now everyone is starting to care about it and I just want to keep it to myself because I think everyone will judge me, put it of ,or say oh mine is so much worse. I have also done therapy before but it did nothing it just made me avoid my parents. I am so tired of this, what should I do?

My experience is that therapy can be good for some and not for others. You need to feel open to it for it to be useful. As you aren't, it's likely not right for you. Keeping difficult emotions inside takes a toll over time. Perhaps you'll feel differently in the future and seek out help when you're ready for it. Be kind to yourself.
