Should I Stay?

My family is split between my mom and dad, I used to never even consider moving with my dad but now it seems like the best option even though all my friends and family are here.

 

First off, I've been having serious problems with my mom, all she does is make me feel like crap. I'm always being yelled at, even for small things like not saving her any strawberries. She has always been a very tough and logical person, while I am extremely sensitive, so we're not a great match. She is absolutely convinced I'd be a hoarder without her, I will admit my room is a bit messy, but what teen's isn't? I'm really sick of her calling me rude, ungrateful, selfish, inconsiderate, and more things, which really hurts my feelings, since its coming from my mother. I feel like she's always trying to start stuff, 95% of our conversations is her yelling at me, which I have no chance of saying anything back without her seeming like she'll ground/hit me, even if I'm with my dad the whole summer when I get back she's mad at me in the first 5 minutes. My mom is NOT abusive, besides an occasional medium-strength hit when I annoy her, although once she did tackle me to the bed when I was 8 because I "broke" the computer when it just needed to be restarted, which has me still living in fear of her. Sometimes, my mom says and does things that make me feel uncomfortable and when I mention this she yells at me that I "can't control what she says" and "she'll say whatever she wants to," even if I am just asking for the effort to make me less uncomfortable. I have found myself avoiding her all together and enjoying when she's at the gym or working.

 

This all leads to the problem at hand, I'm really starting to want to move, I think the main thing holding me back is that when I mentioned it, she told me that I could- when I was 18. I'm desperately wanting to get away from her, though I miss her over the summers, I find that as soon as I get back I want to get back to my dad's. Is there anything I could say/do to get myself away?
