i told my mum that i needed to see a phyciatrist or sumthin and i told her one of the problems i have which she doesn't know about and i kept explaining that i needed and wanted to see one and she wouldn't listen it has taken years for me to get the strength to ask for help and she tries changing the subject and then tells me that goin to one would make me more confused about my mental health

WTF!! most parents would want there kids to get help if they needed it.

where can i go from here????

You can't wake a person who is pretending to be asleep.

I agree. You need another adult who has some authority and experience to try to influence her. You may or may not also have an aunt or uncle on her side of the family who might "advocate" for you.

A Parent, old geezer, and occasionally right. Good judgment comes from bad
experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.

I recommend talking to a school counselor. He or she can help you convince your parents of your need to see a mental health professional.

Talk to a counceller or depending how old you are go and see a psychiatrist or psychologist by yourself. Your family should wise up, and care enough to let you at least meet with someone. Truthfully parents have their own ideas and it may be out of ignorance or such not hate or meaning to neglect your mental health that they base their decision but it still hurts you.
