High school help please?

So i live in canada and i just graduated today. At my grad a lot of my peers received awards and i didnt get any. My mom got pretty upset after and didnt take a pic with me and started nagging right after teh ceremony. Any ways i ignored it but she went all psycho when we got home throwing stuff, name calling etc. I told her that even i was pretty upset about not getting any awards but she kept saying a lot of hurtful things. By hurtful i mean like things you'd never wanna hear trust me. And i know i screwed up and couldve done better but i didnt know what i wanted to do so i took courses i hated and did bad in them. I told my parents that i am coming back for an extra semester to do what i want. I wanna go into criminal justice but earlier i tHought i wanted to do public health. She keeps nagging me and says that im never gonna go to uni or get good grades and im just set for failure in life. I feel so bad :( Like i know i did bad but i wanna improve and do better but this hurts me so much. And i also hid a lot of my report cards in the past and she brought all that up. She keeps telling me about her friend that told her when i was born that i was gonna make her cry someday. And she thinks all that is coming true and im set for failure. I just hate this i need help i dont know what to do

    try talking to another adult about your mom, I'm sure it would seem scary but it isn't right for her to be saying these things to you. I didn't get any awards either however I am doing pretty good in high school. So don't worry about it. and if you don't know what you want to be yet that's ok you can always take other paths and it's never to late to change paths
