Living in my parents home is depressing

Hello,

Background info: I'm a rising senior who is turning 17 this summer.
Ever since I was a child, I was beaten for messing up or forgetting things. I was raised strictly, and my parents only changed for awhile when sibling number three arrived. They stopped physical beating too. I have given them chance after chance and I cannot live with them anymore. I nearly killed myself once because my parents are never satisfied with me. Nothing is good enough anymore. Straight A's in honors classes? Not good enough. Using my time working a job to pay THEIR BILLS? Not good enough. This morning she cried because I looked like a "slob" wearing a graphic tee and athletic shorts. At home. During covid 19 when nobody can go anywhere. I'm treated different from my siblings: I'm constantly singled out and strung by the neck for things I can't control or didn't do. I've had it. I'm depressed out of my mind and it's running me into the ground. This toxic environment is not healthy for me, and I want to go and live somewhere else. I would be able to support myself because I have resources and a job. I'm in Kentucky.
Please help me.
