So basically my parents have decided to move back to Maryland (we used to live there and moved to Texas around 3-4 years ago)
First of all, I was upset to leave Maryland but I got used to Texas and ended up really liking my friends, the school, and everything.
Second, it was really stressful moving the first time and the second time definitely won’t be any better.
Third, I don’t f---ing want to go through stress and suicidal thoughts for another 2 whole years
My parents are moving for their jobs, because my mom doesn’t like her job (the reason we moved in the first place was because she didn’t like her job THERE and wanted to move here bc she thought it would make her happier), and bc my dad doesn’t like how much he has to work.
I get that they don’t want their jobs, but I really don’t see a problem with their current jobs. My mom’s gonna complain about her job in Maryland anyways, and she doesn’t get that it ISNT going to make her feel happier or more ‘complete’.
And, my old school was an all girls school. It sucked, everyone was socially behind and people there made me really uncomfortable. I’d kill not to go back
My dad kind of wants to stay, and we’re moving in July. I need help convincing my parents that it isn’t gonna be a good decision and is seriously going to deteriorate my mental strength and health. Like I really can’t go through another year or two of wanting to cause self-harm -
Aww, I'm sorry, I'm not really sure what to do though. I get what your going through sort of though, although with me, I moved here and now I sometimes do self harm to myself and I get bullied and are alone. Do your parents know how you feel?
-
Sort of. But I haven’t been able to tell them how it’s gonna affect me.
They think I’ll just miss my friends and they keep telling me I’ll make new friends -
I know that it's going to be REALLY hard, but you need to tell them, let them know what's on your mind.
-
It's a parent's job to keep in mid of their kid's emotions, and not just go for their own wants. That's just plain selfish of them, and you need to tell them how you feel.

I agree with Eclipse

:c

I know it may be hard, but I believe and trust in you. <3

They won’t take me seriously
They expect me to be perfect -
No one is perfect and their your parents, they should listen to you, just ask them to listen to you and try to get their attention to have a full chat with them. They can tell you how they feel and you tell them how you feel.
-
Tell them how you feel and why you want to stay. You're their kid, they should listen to you.
-
Like everyone else has said: you should tell your parents how you feel. Hopefully they’ll listen and maybe y’all can compromise and say that you won’t mind moving back when you’re done with school, but as of right now, you want to stay where you are because it’ll be better for you mentally
