my honda civic fd2 2011 brand new.

my break in the front right squeaks for a bit when i drive off then it'll go away then it'll come back, and everytime i break on a uneven road my break starts to rattle and the foot break starts to shake.

my mechanic said don't break like a grandma so ive been trashing my break ever since but it got worse. lol

have you had it checked to see if you have warped discs?
Its shouldn't matter if you brake softly or hard, it shouldn't shake.
Sqeaking could be a few reasons, when was the last time you changed the pads? also what pads r you running?

check the brake pads.. if u hear squeaks it means ur brake pads r gone.. change them pronto or risk machining the brake discs or gettin new ones

but if ur car is new then brake pads should still be good.. or could be calipers, check brake fluid
