Really need advice on a family situation and posted it here because I have no idea where else to post this because I really need advice and I actually do think that this is considered emotional abuse, so perhaps it is a bit fitting.
So my entire family is extremely religious and very conservative. A month or two ago, I left the church and explained everything to my family. They were NOT accepting, nor respectful of my choice. This makes it incredibly hard to live at home with them (I am 17 so am not able to move out yet). They are rude and simply immature. They guilt me constantly and beg for me to become a Christian. They basically don't let me out of the house with any friends (because they aren't Christians). They were even going to track how many miles I went on my car to make sure I don't go anywhere I am not “supposed to”. They were even going to take away the internet and basically make me live in a prison and watch over me anytime I go onto the computer to make sure I am only doing homework. All of this is difficult as is of course but today I found out some horrible news
My parents said that my sister and her husband will be living with us in a few months for whichever period of time it takes for them to buy their own house. My sister and her husband are also Christians and they too, come at me from every corner to try and “save” me. They don't respect my decision or accept it. I can't imagine how difficult it will be to live in a house with two more people who will be trying to do EVERYTHING they can to change me. Even now, they don't leave me alone when I ask them nicely. Not only is the religious aspect of having them live at our house hard, but also the fact that I don't feel comfortable around my sister's husband. Things like going/sharing the same bathroom with them :// and also my skin hasn't been looking too good recently and it will be hard for me to walk around with him there and overall, it would just be uncomfortable for me to be around him.
With that said, I can whole-heatedly say that I will kill myself if this happens for sure. I don't know if there is anyway my parents will reconsider allowing them to move in with us, so I need some advice on what I can do. ://
