Make sure you've said exactly what you want from the professor at or near the end of the email. For instance, if you want a reply, let the professor know. If you need to meet with them, make that known as well. Go through your email to check for any grammar mistakes. Most of the time, you'll catch a mistake or two you made that you need to correct. Think about the content of the email to make sure you aren't demanding something. Also, make sure it's really as concise as it can be. You don't want to overshare about your personal life, as that's not professional. Just like you began the letter formally, you need to end it formally as well. Use a word like "Sincerely" or "Best," followed by a comma and your full name. Once you've sent the email, you don't want to pester your professor for an answer. However, if you haven't heard back in a week, you can try again, as your email may have been lost in the shuffle. Once you receive a reply, make sure you acknowledge that you received it. A simple "Thank you" may be enough. If necessary, write a more extensive email using these same guidelines to keep it professional. If your problem or question is not being adequately resolved by email, ask for an appointment to meet in person.  For instance, you could say, "Thank you for addressing my question. I'll see you in class." If you'd like to meet, you could write, "I appreciate your thoughts on this issue. Would you mind if we met in person to discuss it in more detail?"

The more often you address issues as they come with your mom in a clear, level-headed way, the more likely she is to recognize that you are growing up, and thus she can trust you and your decisions and opinions more.  Set ground rules and build trust and security with your mom, and you will be mad at her (and vice versa!) much less moving forward. In addition to healthy discussions with your mom as situations arise, it is also important to prevent anger from building up inside of you.  Some common outlets include:  Listening to music Exercising Writing down your feelings and thoughts Deep breathing Talking with a trustworthy friend It is easy to feel like your mom doesn’t understand you or to blame her and others for all of your problems, but these are very counterproductive reactions.  Rather than asking why this is happening to you, take responsibility for your own feelings and your own part in a situation.  If you don’t, you will continue to make the same decisions and have the same fights with your mom.

Start slowly, by building on the daily routines you may already have. Routines can help establish normalcy and self-discipline. This can make you feel more competent and able to tackle obstacles that may come up. For example, you might try getting in the habit of waking at a consistent time or making your own breakfast every morning. These may seem minor, but they create a sense of personal rhythm or normalcy in your life.  Avoid too much structure too fast, which could prevent you from growing by keeping you tied to repetitive behavior patterns.  Finding daily routines or patterns of behavior that work for you can reduce stress and give you the confidence to experiment with expressing yourself. Education connects you with people, ideas, and resources to which you would not otherwise have access. There are a lot of different types of degrees available at schools or universities. Look into them to see if any seem to fit with the sense of normalcy you’re trying to cultivate for yourself. If they aren’t, buck the norm a little bit by looking into vocational schools or apprenticeships in your area of interest. Don’t confine your own sense of normalcy to that of everyone else. While people are graduating from high school and attending college at rates higher than ever, it’s becoming more common for individuals to graduate college without being sufficiently prepared to work in the field they majored in. Chances are, you'll need to work to take care of yourself. You should also plan accordingly, since you might need to support more than just yourself. Avoid choosing a job based solely on popularity, which won't necessarily make you happy. Instead, ask yourself what kind of people or environment you'd like to be around every day. If the work seems out of character for you and you don't think you'd be happy, consider finding another job that would allow you to be yourself. People who are generally happy at work are often those who get pleasure out of the day-to-day interactions they have with their co-workers. While getting married might be normal for some, it's not for everyone. Instead, work to develop meaningful relationships with people from a variety of social groups. Broad exposure to different kinds of people can help you find a person you really connect with. Regardless of the type of group you interact with, you need support from people around you. This is essential for you to feel a sense of normalcy in your everyday life. Caring for a pet that needs your daily love and attention can create a sense of normalcy in a variety of ways. Taking care of a pet can help you establish a daily routine and give you more pleasure in your day-to-day activities. Studies have also shown that pet-owners tend to be healthier and happier people in general. And, if you aren't ready for a long-term relationship or having kids, starting of with a pet can help transition towards building more meaningful relationships with other people. Keep in mind that choosing the right pet for your living space and daily schedule is important. If you don’t have enough time or space, caring for a pet could end up increasing stress and producing heartache in the long run. While it may seem counterintuitive, exposing yourself to a variety of people, customs, and cultures can make you feel more normal than if you are simply comparing yourself to people in your hometown. Travel can show you just how big and diverse the world is. The more you travel, the more you'll see just how much people across the world have in common. You'll also realize that differences are a part of every culture. Avoid using travel as an escape. Instead, travel to learn more about yourself, others, and what you enjoy.
