I totally understand Matt. My family is pretty crazy too. It is important for you to get out as soon as you can, because the longer you stay the more damage it will do to you emotionly and the harder it will be to leave.
Don't let your family manipulate you by making you feel bad about wanting to live your own life and be happy. You deserve happiness.
Try to take it one step at a time. Are you going to go to college? Do you have a job? Do you have relatives that would let you live with them? Once you get away you'll be able to look at things more clearly, which will help you learn how to better deal with you Mom.
Hang in there and let us know how you're doing.
