Move out and do it now. A year or two of living on your own will give you a new respect for your parents. It will give them a new respect for you. You're over 18 (or you shouldn't be here), you're still alive, and it sounds like you've graduated high school. Your parents have done their job, they don't owe you anything more. You've got an ongoing festering relationship that will only get worse.
I moved out of my parents home the day after my 18th birthday and didn't see them again until I introduced them to my wife (and their grand daughter) six years later. We get along great now. Time apart is the only thing that will solve your problem.
