Still living with the parent who abused me

...See more I still live with the parent who abused me (threatened to slap me, call me ret*rded) and they have thrown dishes, screamed and yelled at me and ignores what they've done. Sometimes they try to hug me or pat my shoulder but I am scared and angry at this person and absolutely hate physical contact. I can't even say anything about that because they will yell at me for that too. It is so mentally exhausting especially since my family barely talks about those times. I had to sneak out the back door once and run through the brush to get to safety because it got so bad one time. One time I heard them stumbling drunk in the living room so I snuck out of the house at 4 in the morning in the dark and rain and went to my grandma's house.

I'm bi and don't know how to deal with family members

...See more I'm bi and my dad is not accepting towards gay/bi/trans people even though he claims to be. He said on the way to a movie that being gay wasn't natural and that it was an aberration (his words) and refuses to use trans peoples' proper pronouns until they've had surgery. he calls bi people greedy and argues about that. He brings it up at the times when no one has even mentioned anything about the Lgbt community. He just gets mad about out of nowhere so I feel like I'm walking on eggshells. he gets mad if you don't answer right away or say something that doesn't adhere to his beliefs. He once started calling another family member the f word and homo because he doesn't like him. I have a heavy preference for women (i sometimes wonder if im actually a lesbian) and am worried he won't accept me or my partner
