What the title says. I'm just done in this house. I can't remember the number of times my mom has told me to go to live with my dad, to get out of the house and be independent (and all in my country's context...I obviously can't be independant even working, and I'm just out of highschool), oh, and the new one "I'll leave you and I don't know what you are going to do, but I'll dissappear from your life. You'll keep the apartment". What.The.Actual.Fuck.

Well, I'm just done. She called me dumb for washing only a towel on the washing machine with a "fast washing program" it has, it scalated into a fight, she introduced themes such as my dad, his economic situation and then said she would talk with my dad and brother after I called her stupid (she started a fight just for using a different program on the washing machine). She told me, again, to get out of the house, and that's exactly what I'm gonna do. I'll pack my stuff, clothes, books, and leave out of this hell. I don't care if she talks to my dad, my brother or whoever she wants. I'm just done. I hate her and I hate her screams. Yes, I'm fucking mad, sad, angry about what's happening with my dad and his relationship, and my frecking family, but she doesn't understand and she never will. I'm moving tomorrow, I don't care if I have nowhere to go. Goodbye.

Take minute calm down and focus on the positives in your life. Im not going to baby your ego and washing mashines really do cost alot of money when a load (even on eco) is consisting of a single thing. Parents that need more help talk harshly to kids everywhere, mine included. Trust me that in the long run life gets better. Run or stay it will not change that your relationship with her needs to change, and its better to start baby steps now then leaps and bounds when the relationship is already destroyed. Sometimes only a specific love can destoy and rebuild, so make sure it a healthy relationship paired with that.

OoO Omg... Im so sorry to hear that :( let me think and Ill respond in the morning, I really need to think about how to answer this

For now, Im going to say, Calm down. You can't think properly and rationally with emotions in the way. Running away will not help your relationship with your mother and it will only make it worse. She may say things she doesn't mean but she loves you and she just has a different way of showing it. Ya'll may need to go see a family therapist and see if that helps any.

That seems like a silly reason to leave. I think perhaps she is just showing you tough love. It does seem quite odd to only put one thing into the washing machine. I think the part of being young is realizing with elders get mad at us, its not totally due to hate, but its to educate us from ignorance. Try to talk about this with other family members to get their take on it. Just calm down and see the bigger picture.

Weeell I'm ashamed. Sorry, I had some kind of emotional breakdown yesterday. I'm not gonna do anything stupid and I don't hate my mom. I'll just stay cool about my dad and live my life. Now I'm here listening indie music and chilling.

P.D.: In Venezuela, gas, electricity and water are subsidized by the state, so we pay less than 10$ a month for everything (I could refill the tank of a huge SUV for 10$ all year, and I'd still have change. Same for kitchen gas and electricity...and water)

I know how it feels like to be woken up and put to sleep by screams. I have planned my runaway more than I've ever planned my daily schedule. Before doing that, think. Where are you going to sleep? What are you going to eat? Do you have any relatives you can stay with for a while? What about a decent job? You need money to live. Running away can f you up more than you think.
There is another path you can take. Have a conversation with your mum. Tell her that her words are hurting you. Talk with her for hours, try to understand, she will feel better. Save up money, take her to a weekend holiday ( I know how crazy it sounds but IT WORKS). If that doesn't work, take her to a therapist. If you think she will hate you for that, ask for help a relative she trusts with her life to convince her.
Maybe she does not deserve your help or love but right now she needs it. She needs you. The only thing that should make you give up is her denying ANY help.

In understand your problems been solved and all, but in my opinion, look, hey, you could easily stay with a friend for a couple of days to let off some steam or something. As you know already, leaving the house unprepared with only provisions for the day is super risky. Understand especially, in some countries, depending on your age, your parents can contact the police. Where I live, you are allowed to live independently after the age of 16.

You know what's right from what I can see, so just keep relationships clear and if things do get to the point where you want to leave, don't leave from anger. Make sure things are planned out. You may regret things if you do so without thinking.

I'm sure you'll be fine. Talk to me if you need someone~ c:
