Your parents are toxic. This is not loving behavior; it is controlling, manipulative, and abusive. Of course you’re scared! You have to walk on eggshells around them, when they should be the people you turn to for comfort and love.
They have to want to change. It sounds like they’re nowhere near that step, so trying to maintain a relationship will only cause you more misery and anxiety. You are an adult now and you can choose who you want in your life. Choose people who build you up, love you, and make you feel safe. Always those kinds of people. Your parents are not it. If you have the means to move out or disconnect from them, do so. Give yourself time and space to heal.
