Move out. Then don't put up with any crap from him, make him responsible for his words and actions - not in a 'gotcha' way, but just fairly and simply tell what he did or said to make you feel the way you feel. Treat him like you would any other adult in your life. Because he is your father, you might also ask him to go to counseling with you.

Doesn't make me feel better, no meaning to me for sure.
Can't stop you from praying and blessing me,
and if that makes you feel better feel free.
But keep it to yourself please, don't tell me.
And let's all respect each other's feelings.
With kindness, support and "sweet dreamings."
