It’s been awhile since my last post. Damn, I was.. 16? I’m 18 now and things aren’t looking quite as bright. I’m more mature, yes, but.. My grandfather died an awful death. Stage 4 cancer. I got to watch him suffer, scream and plead for death then die. My Grandmother also has stage 4 and my OTHER grandmother just was diagnosed with stage 1 breast cancer. My two great-uncles passed away, along with a great aunt.. Plus my dog, Charm, and my Cat, Jarro also passed away..
(The fuck is with all this death?)
This has my my family go even more batshit crazy, and, in the midst of this I’m turning 18, getting out of school and, in a month or two, I’m moving out. I can’t take it at home anymore. I can’t stand this mess. They drink and scream and act like fucking idiots and it’s such a stress to just live and be. They’re so incredibly strict it’s difficult to find a job or do most anything that requires leaving the house.. That piled with the stress from my GED study and math issues.. It’s a lot.
The thing is I’m moving in with a friend’s parents, and I don’t know how to explain that to them without it turning into a fight. Any suggestions? It might be a fight nonetheless.. I have no idea.

Just tell them you are adult now and you want to move in with friend. You are a grown mature person and you want to move on with your life
that’s really catchy because they may act abusive.
this would have been a good idea for an ideal parents, but it’s not the case. my impression is that they are irrigated and abusive.
you have no option to avoid a fight, by this condition you should calculate your steps :
perhaps go for the last minute and then notify them.
time helps us forget. it means for them they will have time to calm down a little bit. just make sure you have a back up plan – at least take your most important things to your friend’s place before you tell your parents. so if they obey you to stay and dare you to not move, you could go anyhow with out asking.
family can turn on you- be sure to have everything private out of their hand reach.
dont leave them with passwords users phones or email of your friends or yours.
and good luck in general
Hmm, I could see your choice to move in with a friends parents being accepted by them as an insult. Or possibly abandonment in the mist of your family Shit storm.
You aren’t working, right? How do you feel about a job and apartment, maybe with that same friend? That would likely be less hurtful, wanting to move out and be more independent.
Tho if your home life is that bad I sympathize for ya, sorry and good luck
I’m trying to see the full scope, I guess ultimately you need to weigh your current strife against what it may do to them and your relationship with them going forward
