I'm a 20 year old man now and I feel like Islam is the truth. I am seriously considering taking shahada and officially becoming Muslim, but there's one major thing stopping me from doing this. I love my parents very much, but they are atheists and not fans of religion at all. My father moved out last year but I still live with my mother. I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to pray 5 times a day, go to a mosque (especially on Fridays), buy and use a prayer mat or avoid things that are haram. I've been considering waiting until I leave home, live by myself and can finally go to a mosque, take shahada and practice Islam fully. I feel like if I took shahada now, I wouldn't be able to fulfill my duties as a Muslim at all and I would basically be constantly sinning. Should I wait until I finally live on my own (that will be a few years from now though) or is there a way I can still be Muslim without letting everyone know about it?

Apologies if this question sounds stupid, I really want to do this but I'm still afraid I won't be able to.
