I am 17 and have been very independant for years. However she is constantly calling up my friends and their parents and shouting at them and when I come home she has been through everything in my room and taken stuff and beent hrough all my private, most sentimental possessions. She is also trying to turn my dad against me by making up stories about my spiting her, that are blatent lies. She tries to make me cry and when I do she takes photos of me with her digital camera.What shall I do? I am desperate and living with her is driving me mad and also very hurtful.

 Welcome to the club, my Dad's now married to a woman who has done everything in her power to split us up. My Dad used to be my best friend and now we hardly speak. I figure if he's willing to let her drive a stake through the middle of us, there's not much I can do. I talked to him about my problems with her, but it didn't do too much good.
Unless your Dad's willing to see what's happening, there isn't a whole lot you can do. Try talking to him...Good luck xx

I don't doubt what you say, but I only wish I could hear her side of the story, just to balance things up a bit.

She sounds like a very unhinged woman. Having someone invade your privacy is completely unreasonable and you shouldnt have to put up with it.You might want to think about getting a lock fitted on your bedroom door and/or keeping your possessions in a safe place.
Suggest you, your dad and his girlfriend all sit down and talk about the situation and agree on some boundaries. I imagine she may act differently when your dad is around.
Also try to keep your friends numbers away from her. x
