To a question such as you are asking, one could write volumes. I suggest you talk to safe and trusted adults at this time. Safe trusted adults, for you, may include one or both of your parents or not.

Crisis Connection is an excellent 24-7 resource & link you may phone repeatedly: I urge you to make a first call when you are alone and in private.

Perhaps you have one or more teachers you trust. Schools have special counselors and psychologists and social workers.

You turning age 18, graduating high school, etc., may 'matter' to the answer but most commonly in the usa one's relationships with one's parents don't alter due to a particular date in time or the event of h school grad', for instance.

It may be appropriate for you to make arrangements to confer privately with an att'y at this time. If you do so I urge a seasoned well experienced fam' law att'y be chosen - get online, read a few bios' in choosing.

Be wary of 'free advice'.
