Firstly, it sounds like a nightmare situation as I am sure that you love everyone but you now need your own space.
You need to get yourself and your mother to the council and say that you are homeless. They will giveyou temporary accommodation until they find you a house or flat to live. If you and your mother are working though they might say that you need to rent somewhere.
You can also ask for help with your grandparents. Please go and ask for help. Another avenue to take is to go to your GP and talk to them about how you feel and that it is seriously affecting your health.
Best of luck

This is all a learning lesson for you. You are strong and smart and can handle anything that comes your way. Help get the ones with the mental problems into some kind of help program. The one with obsessive compulsive disorder has to deal with there own problem so try not to let it get to you. You are put in this situation because you would be a great caregiver for people. Learn what you can and study on the health industry. you can do it.

Sit down over dinner (not at home) with your mum and plan when to leave and where you are going to go.. And do it..
If everything around you is falling apart, you can leave if you want to..

you could always leave you know.. but who's gonna take care of your family when you're gone? maybe you two are the only ones that they are counting on to survive...i dont know, it seems so hard to be in your shoes. but God bless anyways. dont give up, things will get better soon ^_^

You have not mentioned anything about your dad. Since you and mum are normal, why don't you live separately?

get the hell out of there before you get stuck with providing for them.
I guess it's a harsh choice, but you have to choose to have a life or to be their nurse.
