I'm being abused by my mother when she gets drunk or angry, no one will believe me! Last week she punched me in the throat and I thought 'that's it! I can deal with a few slaps here and there but if this carries on something really bad can happen!' So I scambled to my feet and phoned the police, they asked me what service I needed and, to be honest, I wasn't sure. I coughed down the phone as fast as I possibly could trying to explain what had happened as my mum marched down the stairs towards me shouting "HAVE YOU REALLY JUST PHONED THE POLICE!!". She snached the phone and ended the call, but later on they phoned her back explaining that they new it was a hoax call and that they didn't believe me. But, you know now, it wasn't a hoax and I really need some advise on what I should do...

Plz help, Lauren Xx
