I don't think that living with such a family is good for you. I can relate, because my mother is from hell.The first misconception you must get over is that being a "night person" is strange or wrong. Your internal clock is just set differently. I prefer sleeping during the day, and getting up sometime before the banks close. Many creative people are the same way, perhaps because they need quiet to focus on their art or writing or music. This puts you in excellent company, whether you're particularly creative yourself or not.
I'm an artist myself, but it takes a great deal of time to finish a painting and more time to sell it. To supplement our income, I'm learning medical transcription, which I can do at home- at night.
Try to make a break from your family. They obviously don't understand you and don't want to.
They're damaging your self-esteem, and nobody needs that crap. -SGH
