Damn I just told my family I want to go by a different name and that I’m going to start the process of getting it legally changed. And my mom immediately uses my birth name and when I told her I was being serious she STILL thought it was a joke

This isn’t even new news. I did give them a heads up a few months ago that I was planning on getting my name changed. And then just recently I sent them a more serious message—restating and confirming what I was going forward with.
And they don’t believe me I’m like what’s going on here
No way really?? That's so disrespectful. So sorry to hear that Grapes. Just keep being persistent about it and stay strong! I'm sure eventually she'll understand how important this is to you.
I don’t think she thinks I’m dead serious about it. She’s not normally like this so it feels weird that she’s acting this way.
Thankfully I have a sister that’s super on board and will use that name whenever she’s referring to me around them. I’m sure my parents will come around eventually 😩
