Hi Melissa,
I can completely understand where you are coming from. I am around the same age as you as well! You may want to think about what it is that truly gets to you about these 3 people. Is there a way for you to compromise? Perhaps you may approach the issues you are having in a less then ideal way, which may make them feel attacked and then your point and true feelings are not understood the way you had hoped. I'm sure these 3 people don't truly understand your stress.
Talking with a psychologist may help you get these feelings out. The psychologist also may give you advice on ways to better communicate. Talking with someone who doesn't know these people or you may help provide a different perspective. It definitely does not hurt to talk to someone. The fact that you are willing to means you want to work something out with these 3 people and better your relationship. Moving is one option, but why not explore all the options before making any decisions.
It sounds like this is eating at you, but you want to make it better so be proud of yourself for that.
As far as taking something to help you relax, that is definitely something to discuss with a doctor. But I will say that exercise is my favorite way to take time to myself, relax and do something just for me that benefits my mind and body. If I don't have some sort of "me time" where I don't have to worry or think about anyone else, I am a stressful person to myself and everyone around me. Try to find ways to do things just for yourself.
