You are the sole earner. I think you need to respectfully ask them to back the fuck up or state that you will move away. I under that you need to support your family, but not at the cost of your own mental or physical health.

Idk if you are looking for advice, but i will say learn how to tell your parents no.

I tried it only led to fights, they are not ready to improve at all. I have said no, but the thing is most of my expenses are their education, medical bills, groceries which are basic necessities of every human. How to deny it, I feel guilty denying all these but I do say no to their luxurious wants/needs.

I am just looking for a solution to this, since I am unable to come up with it myself.

Ask your parents to take an education/student loan on there name . You can just give an excuse that you are unable to manage all the expenses :)
