  Thank God adolescence only lasts a few years..you will be so glad to get to the other side. So you have stopped being a dependent child...well almost...and you are heading for being an independent adult...the biggest transition of your life. Few people get through this easily but most manage without serious long term harm. Sadly some simply don't make it at all..they die young, go mad or still live with their parents when they are 40. Don't play your Mums game...you are too old for that now! Get a job and earn some money of your own...money you can spend on what you want, because you earned it. Over the next couple of years you need to work out what kind of an adult you want to be and start living the life...not what kind of messed up teenager you want to act like in the mean time. You will get offers, be pulled in different directions, get very moody and feel things intensely...and find the 'rules' irritate beyond breaking point. Good news...you are normal, you will get there, just stay safe in the mean time...best wishes.
