I think I'm going to break down.

Some of these are little things, some of these are not, but they are all adding up.

- My crush on my teacher [http://www.virtualteen.org/forums/showthread.php?t=49067] just seems to get a whole lot worse everytime I see him and it may sound silly, but I don't know how I can survive 6/7 weeks without him. When I'm feeling down I know I can always go in the drama studio and we talk and stuff and it makes me feel a lot better.

- My mum thinks I'm cutting myself because I have a scratch from my cat on my wrist and wont drop it.

- She doesn't want me to hang around with 2 of my friends because 1 self harms and the other took an overdose of paracetamol, got pregnant (had a miscarriage when she was at the hospital after overdosing) and is schizophrenic.

- I got in a big state because my friend overdosed.

- There is this one girl who all the teachers love (especially one) and she gets all the attention in a lot of classes, I'm good at these classes, and the teachers mention/see anyone else.

- My friends have been getting me down about my style [Lolita]

and small things like people generally pissing me off. [sorry for cussing]

I feel like I need to cry, but I can feel it, and it wont come out... my head will explode...

You seem to have a lot on your mind and it's just building up more and more stress, so I think the solution is to deduct some of these and decrease a lot of your worries.

Crushing on teachers is perfectly normal for teenagers, I guess. Does anyone else know about this crush?

If you aren't actually cutting, pull your mum aside and firmly explain to her the real situation and that her assumptions are incorrect. The fact that your mum disapproves of you hanging around with these friends may seem incredibly unfair seeing as they're your friends - but she is looking out for you after all. In fact, she does sound like she's worrying about you quite a bit. I'm also sorry to hear about your friend overdosing; to know that someone you care about is doing something like that is devastating. Do you know if she is recieving any therapy/medical help of the sort? Also, your style and the way you express yourself shouldn't interfere with others judgement, if they don't like it then that's their problem, try not to let other peoples petty comments about something you're passionate about get in the way.

If you need to cry, do it. Crying, screaming, yelling, venting, ranting or anything like that will help you get these worries and stresses off your chest. If you need anyone to talk to at anytime feel free to PM me whenever you want. :)
