    Only to repeat what was said in the previous thread. You did not add many details about your parents attitudes other than what you said here above about them gaslighting you and name calling like "attention seeking". If coming out will put you in any danger with your parents, not just if they would throw you out (as mine would have if I came out at 16 and as they did when I came out at 22) but if they would limit who you can talk to or be friends with, your time, your access to internet, if they would degrade you or in any other way try to dissuade you from being who you really are - wait. It may feel difficult to wait, I know that it feels bad to hide but trust me, sleeping on the street or having your parents invalidate you hurts a lot more.
