Am I being "overactive"?

...See more I'm a teenager, my father is very rude, he yells all the time, and threatens me a lot, almost every day. It makes me very afraid of him, so much so that I try to run outside to avoid him. I think that it makes sense for me to feel this way, because he is always so aggressive, but my mother is telling me that I'm overreacting, and that I should not feel quite this strongly towards him. I certainly do not feel like I'm overreacting, so now I'm very confused. Do you guys think that I'm overreacting, or it is really normal to feel this way?
Another question, I have too many questions

...See more In one of my other posts I said that I have really violent thoughts all the time even though I hate violence and I didn't know why...but my friend said that I do that because of my OCD. Is it true that people with OCD have those violent thoughts?
Is this bad enough for me to call for help?

...See more TW: mentions of drug abuse/addiction, inappropriate behavior, slight mentions of divorcement(?), and child manipulation(?) I don't know what else can be triggering, I'm not good with these things. When I was younger I really loved and looked up to my father. Over the years, I have gotten tired of him, and can barely even be around him without being incredibly upset. I got more and more angry with him after each fight he has with my mother. He argues and yells at her a lot, and it is starting to infuriate me. Especially with the recent fights that has been going on, where he got violent and started hitting the furniture, and then tried to put all of the blame on my mother, along with attempting to guilt trip both me and my brother into believing that it is all my mother's fault. He told us that we had to choose between him or my mom, and screamed at us, demanding that we tell him that he's a terrible father. When he's not arguing with my mother, he is trying to force me into kissing him, or letting him lick my face. And when I refuse, he tries to guilt trip me again, telling me that I "don't love" him, and calling me mean words. He also tries to blame everyone for the smallest things, like when he started an entire fight with everybody in the house, because nobody knew where the TV remote was. Still trying to put the blame on everyone else but him, of course. I later found out that he smokes weed, which can explain most of all that, but I don't know how to fix it if he won't listen to anything that I say. Is this bad enough behavior for me to call for some sort of help, or anything else like that? What should I do if he won't listen to anything that I say?
Question, is This Coping Mechanism Healthy?

...See more When I'm really upset, I start to play movies in my head, but they are always violent, and I can't stop doing it despite my hatred for violence or negativity. It does sort of make me feel better, but I don't know if this is the best way to cope. Should I stop doing this?
