Emancipation Help

[kindaconfusedchik]

i am 14 years old and i live in florida. i live in a hellhole, and i want out. i have read the emancipation laws for florida, and i could not get my parents to sign the paperwork. my dad and mom are together but not legally married. and my dad is a truck driver, and my mother is unemployed. my dad has extreme anger problems, and he emotionally and mentally abuses me, to a dangerous point that i cut and hurt myself, i have scars to prove it,and my sister 13 years old, is worse off than i am. he blames everything on us. he makes at the most $800 a week. but everynow and then he'll have 3 checks in a row for only $71. we have another family of 3 living with us, and its ver stressful because we have a small trailor and we are forced to live packed in, with only one vehicle. i feel very unsafe around ,y father, just last night he grabbed my sister because he found out she cut, he grabbed her really hard, and he slapped and pushed my mother. he calls me supid and a skank and a whore, because i kissed my boyfriend. i am a very emotional person, and i dont make friends easily, and it hurts me when i get made fun of. my mother has tried killing herself twice. and recently a guy threatened to shoot me, he held the gun up to my head and if it werent for my dog attacking him, i would be dead right now. but the cops did not believe me and they did not look for the guy, and i have knocks at my window at night, and my parents dont even get up to check if anyone is there....i am scared living here, because i will hurt myself, i have overdosed on drugs before. i have the symptoms of being bi-polar, but my mother or father wont take me to get checked, i have hurt people, and friends and wont even realize im doing it. with my family failing to do the things they need to, i am falling apart, i need out. what can i do??? the things i told you about up there, are just a few problems i have, i cannot take on too much stress at once, im beginning to break....
