Question Complicated life and in need for help - June 19th 2011, 11:00 PM

Hey, my name is Yusi. I live with my mom. I love her but there are things she seems to not understand. She's Muslim and is VERY religious. On the other hand I'm not and I don't want to be Muslim, But as I told her this she wouldn't listen and thinks I've lost my mind. My family is the same as her. Its hard because I can't be who I am. I'm only 15 and I have to wait three years to move out. I just can't wait those three years and pretend to be something I'm not every day. I don't have someone who's over eighteen to move in with. I'm on my own for this. Also I've tried to reason with my family about this but they just seem to hate me some more. I'm looking for a way.. So if there's anyone who's been through this or know what might help me out. PLEASE, PLEASE! Help me out.

hi
i have a very similar situation here. my mom is a muslim convert, my father is a muslim arab. i was brought up in the uk, and we moved to the middle east 8 years ago. i also have no way out. i have to wait untill i've graduated from university, and have a job before i leave. another 5-6 years away. im also being pressured into wearing the hijab and covering up. but i refuse to. all i can advise you to do is to hang in there untill you are 18, and you have somewhere to go, and a job to support yourself. But untill then, keep yourself very busy, with school, studying, get some hobbies, just try and cope, my advise is to just abstain from doing anything to anger your mother and family. just keep to yourself. Try talking to someone you trust, such as a teacher, or school counselor or your close freinds. all i can tell you to do is to stay strong, hang in there, be patient and things will get better
take care
