You have multiple legal rights but there is one thing you must do, avail them and stand up.
To file a case you have to be first clear on what you want ?
Is there a suit where the parents will immediately accept you the way you are ? No.
Do you need them to give you maintenance and place in the house with out disturbing you ? Yes possible, but no law can force them not to frown on you or do some thing like that. If they do that they are in contempt and can be sent to prison and I am sure that defeats the whole purpose for your query had the phrase “if I have to”.
Is there a method to solve this issue carefully -> Yes, will need skill and commitment from your side!
There are a LOT of ways this can go.
One thing you MUST NOT DO is try to kill yourself. Please that is not the solution.

This is a really solveable and a simpler problem than many others.
Hope your better sense prevails.
