I once opened up to my sister about it and she tried to help me but my other sister then convinced me that I should be paying £500 a month and I tried talking to my mum about it but she's a very manipulative person and guilt trips me into me paying that amount, I just needed an outside opinion, I may book an appointment with my psychologist and talk to them about it to ask how I can deal with it, thank you

If you think it's too much then move out and pay less?

Thinking about the bigger picture, it might cost more for OP to move out!

If the OP thinks they are paying too much then surely not.

By the way if OP can't move out, then OP is trapped unless the parents push the rent to above market rates then there is an arbitrage to move out!

How much of that is rent and how much is your share of electricity, water, gas, internet, council tax, food...? Where do you live?
You're posting on a student site and £500 per month is less than many students will be paying for a basic room in a shared house, which probably won't include any of the above.
