How to ask my mom to take me to see a doctor for social anxiety?
So I'm a 16 year old girl. I've had my ups and downs with my social anxiety. The thing is my mom took me to therapy for a while but I just didn't think it helped.
I feel it inside like just something weird with the thought of interacting with others. I want to live life.
The thing is my sister and brother both have anxiety problems. My brother has a little bit of social anxiety. And they both take medicine for it. I feel like my mom just thinks it's a phase for me and I'll just change fast. But I feel like I need to take medicine for it. I don't know.

Therapy doesn't help unless you are pulling your weight.
A doctor determines whether or not medicine is prescribed or necessary. Not your mom. Make that clear.
Being 16 means natural ups and downs. There is no medication to cure anything. Only treat it. And there is no medication for puberty.
