Major family problem, need some advise ASAP?

So lately I've been having a ton of fights with my parents an honestly I'm just tired of fighting with them 24/7. Recently I dropped my blackberry in snow accidentally, and it stopped working I put it in rice and this morning (after a week) my mom told me to take it out an check it and so I did and it wouldn't work :(

My parents aren't wealthy at all, so getting this blackberry was kind of a big deal for me. Plus I only just for it for Christmas. So I was feeling extremely guilty and down. To make matters worse my parents never once screamed at me and my dad was like don't worry I'll buy you a new phone. I was majorly feelind down because of the guilt and so I lost my appetite and told my mom that I couldn't et breakfast because I wasn't hungry. My parents cometely mistook my guilt for attitude and completely spazzed over the fact that I wouldn't eat. And it escalated from there until I was screamed, sworn and bitched at, an somewhat rough handled. So at night, I tried I apologize and wrote down sorry on a sticky and left it on thier bed (because I was scared of my mom because she's so scary when she's angry). Of course my mom mistook that as me being thankless and egoistic and she slapped me across my face (and that hurt a lot because she doesn't usually do that you know? Like I get screamed at and sworn at all the time, but never slapped and rough handled like I was today). She thought that I was mocking her and that "I was throwing an insincere apology in her face." I let her scream and slap me and everything through all this without saying anything because honestly she never listens when I try to defend myself, in fact instead she ends up misinterpreting it completely to another wrong thing that I did or said.

And this happens like almost every other day in my house. Honestly I'm so tired of it. I need advise, so please help me out here somebody because I'm at a point where I'm just so tired of my life.

Update:

Don't worry it's not as bad as abuse. Trust me on that one.

    Don't talk back. You'll get ***** slapped again. Do something nice, like make breakfast for her and put a rose with it. Tape a long, heartfelt sorry note onto the rose, and maybe mow some lawns and **** and get money and buy her a necklace or something pretty or something she likes. Don't tell her about it. Surprise her. I know how you feel. Hell, even as I write this my dad and mom are fighting :/

    Her slapping u on the face is child abuse and u need to talk to her and if she acts agressivly when u do that u need to tell somebody about it i understand that u love ur parents (well i assume) but if they are abusing you its something serious and u shud tell somebody if u ever need somebody to talk call maybe child line or something

    Good luck and stay strong xx

    There is more than physical abuse and ur parents are mentally emotionally verbally abusive and now physically no one deserves any of them ask ur school couselor if u could bring ur parents in so all of u can sit down n talk...other ppl around ur parents probably wont act like they usually do...explain to ur couselor whats going on b4 u bring ur parents...

    Source(s): My mom was alot like that

    Your parents are being stupid and from what I read, you did absolutely nothing wrong! Try getting a family therapist because it is not okay for parents to get physical with their child no matter how bad things get.
