Technically the only way to revoke the contract is by writing up a letter, notarizing it, and sending it to my mother through certified mail. (Basically serve with with a legal notice that she doesn't own me anymore.)
I'm worried my mother will hate me for displaying the fact that I don't trust her. It's just that I don't trust anyone anymore. Should I legally revoke our contract and risk straining our relationship, or just trust that she won't fuck my life up?
WHY would she ask for such a thing?
Moreover, why would you provide it to her?
Why would she be doing YOUR taxes?
It reeks of shit. You should have gotten more information.

I still live with her and rely on her for money, because I graduate in a few months. She claims she wants to do my taxes while I study abroad, because I will be out of the country.
I agreed to such a thing because I am a doormat that needs therapy, thanks to being my daddy's punching bag.

Are you working and going to school? I'm not sure what taxes you would need to file otherwise.
Your mom wants to claim you as a financial dependant. Do not freak out. I think your dad was claiming you until now. She doesn't even need to ask you for your permission you do not have a job and pay taxes so you don't do your own taxes. When you start working and you want to do your own taxes just let her know. Das it man

You can do your own taxes while you study abroad. Sounds liek she just wants your tax return. Is she hard up for cash?

You don't need therapy, you need to stand up for yourself. Nurturing your victimhood is a choice. Just like choosing happiness and getting shitty people out of your life.
