Thank you for being open and honest. I think your Dad has issues that will make it extremely hard for a true reconciliation any time soon. His behavior towards you is not normal. I suspect there is something about his past that he is now taking out on you (and himself, by the sound of it.)
I recommend continuing to find time with your Mom when your Dad's not around, and trying to strengthen that part of the relationship. If that goes well the opportunity may follow to slowly help your Dad come to terms with reality.
In the meantime, I agree with the other posters who've advised you to live (and enjoy!) your own life first. As strange as this may sound, it's up to you to be the adult in this situation and just be patient while your parents grow up.
