My first thread regarding this situation is locked, but here is the link.

I’ve yet to speak to my mother about everything, but lately, so much has been going on within our family. I feel so stressed, I think about what happened every day. I can’t build the courage to tell her about what happened, and I really need support.
What is the best way to go about telling her? Is it an inappropriate time? -

I think the best way would be to go over to her and tell her that you have something heavy to discuss. Sit her down and start simple. You can do this <3

You could try texting or emailing her that you need to sit down and have an important conversation with her. Say when you would like to talk to her. If you do not feel comfortable saying it in person, you could write a letter to her and sit down with her while she reads it. Explain that it is hard to speak about. Sometimes writing everything down is easier than having to say anything right on the spot. Or you could prepare what you want to say on a notebook.

When I needed to talk about something important but couldn't make myself speak aloud, I wrote a letter for my parents and gave them both copies. If you are comfortable doing that, I think it could help you tell your mother.
FYI, I don't think there is ever an inappropriate time to tell your parental units about something like that. You can tell her whenever you are ready to. -
I would like to add that if you need advice or support at any point, do not hesitate to contact me in my thread. Or ask to speak in private. I have gone through similar things as you, so I am here if you need any guidance or assistance.
