Can’t you just refuse? In my country you would be old enough that your mom would have no legal authority over you.
how is she forcing you? just don’t go…
Wtf? You are 20. Tell her to go fuck a Billy goat on top of her favorite mountain. Protect your body, you are the one who has to live with it!
She can’t force you.
Tell them you’re there under duress and don’t want want it. They won’t give it to you.
How is she forcing you? You’re an adult.
At the appointment, tell the nurse/doctor you’re being forced.
When you go tell them so they won’t give it to you then just pretend you have it
If you tell them that your mother is attempting to coerce you theyll call th epolice and have her escorted off premises.
i mean no offence to the OP but can i ask, are you classed as having “special needs” or being a “vulnerable adult”?
You’re an adult, she can’t force you. Don’t let her in/at the appointment make it clear to all the staff you are not consenting to the procedure. Legally they can’t do it if you say so. But also, you mentioned the pull out method in a comment and that is not a responsible option. Use condoms at the very least. Talk to your doctor about other options that would work for you besides the DEPO shot. Your mom isn’t allowed in the room unless you consent to that too. Make it clear she is not to be present, and do not have her listed as a contact in your file so she can’t receive information about your treatments.
