My parents implyed that I should be more like them but I want to be my own person they always force me to take there help when I know how to do something. They always talk down to me, get in my face to intimidate me and they know I’m sensitive but that won’t stop them from yelling. I’m also being treated unfairly I’m the only person that would breathe down my neck. I’m 20 but they treat me like I’m 12

The person that you were is not gone. That person is buried under the shit that your parents have imposed on you. The hurt, and the elemental betrayal of them not recognising the wonder that is YOU.
imagine that you are lying in bed on a really cold day and so you have piled the blankets on. From the outside, looking in, all an observer would see is a big lumpy pile of blankets. They would say “she is gone” but it the pealed back the blankets, one by one, in a caring and loving way, they would discover YOU all cozy and delightfully warm.
The first step is to get your freedom. To develop your escape plan. Because this does not sound like a healthy place for you.
Second step is to find out a way to heal yourself. You need to grieve the losses and betrayal.
Third step is to peal off the blankets and reveal the real you.
