My dad told me that he's been stationed really far away from where we live now and I don't really want to move but I told them I'm fine so they wouldn't worry about me. Last time my mom stayed behind with me so i could continue school here, but she cried herself to sleep at night til he came back and I don't want to do that to her again. It's not my first time moving but this is the longest I've lived in one place. If I tell her how I feel, she'll feel pressured to stay again. I try telling myself good things, like how I can get a dog there and a bigger room and I can always make friends (which I lie about when I say. It's hard for me to make/keep friends), but it's not working. How do I get over not wanting to leave?

I used to live in the Okanagan (a very beautiful area in British Columbia) but we had to move away to a not so nice but still okay part of Canada. I cope with the change by telling myself that I will move back there someday. If I were you, I would make the move and then I would find an enjoyable long term activity to keep myself occupied (my activity is mountain biking, though it is rather flat were I live).
