your efforts will pay off if you take their advice, i think. i had the same problems. first they accused me of being possesed by satan..then it all went to shit. i moved out, but it didnt work out. i ended up homless and i spent years trying to get back to the point that i had been.
it's difficult not getting your due respect. very frustrating...i know how that goes. at least put together a solid plan that you can live with stability :)
it may take some time apart for both you and your folks to cool down. thats what happened with me. hope this helps in some small way cheech
