What’s your advice to me regarding leaving parents house ? Please read below

So my father hit me today. I am 21 years old and an only child. In the past few months I’ve been longing to be independent and just do things on my own and am tired of being disrespected, gaslighted, being called names and not being heard even though I pay rent, go to work, do chores, pay my taxes, go to school.

He isn’t the perfect father. He used to hit me and abandon me on the streets when I was younger and I believe that this is why I need to leave. I’m not happy living with him due to those inner child wounds coming back every time he yells at me.
But yet I know he did his best to raise me.

I believe it’s time to leave now even though he threatens to say that if I leave I will never talk to him ever again. I believe it’s time I earn my own self respect. So what advice would you give to me on my journey out of the house? Thanks :)

Sorry that happened to you. I'm about to move out of my parents house too. As much as I love my parents I cant live with them anymore it's affecting me mentally. My dad will complain about the stupidest and petty things that don't even matter 🤦‍♂️.
