If you really think it's severe enough that your parents are disowning you, and using you to run errands for your brother, then you really need to see someone about it. Going to a school counselor can make a difference. Also, you can call your local police department if you feel they are doing it intentionally enough to harm you emotionally and physically. They may consider emancipation. Or in other words, foster care.
If you feel it's minor enough to be fixable, then really talk to your parents about how you feel. You may have, or have already tried to, but try it again. If your words do not get through them, take action and see a counselor or trusted adult.
Also, is your brother younger or older than you? If your brother is younger than you, your parents may feel that you should take on his responsibilities since he is at a younger age. If he is older than you, then I can see where he can "do whatever he wants" which certainly is unfair. Older siblings are harder to get through with. But either way, ask your brother how he feels about you doing things for him.
In the mean time, you just seem so angry and distraught, which I completely understand. You are going through some rough times, and really going to someone is the first step to anything because in some cases, you can't solve it all on your own. Getting someone on your side makes the problem easier, and it makes it resolved faster.
A few steps the counselors do in this kind of process:
1) The first step they take is to call up your parents, to try to talk to them about the situation and how you feel.
2) If that doesn't work, the second step they do is notify them again, and warn them what they are doing is just harming you emotionally and putting you through stress, anxiety, and maybe some depression through it all.
3) The third step is they will notify police (if it's that severe) and get them involved. They will take you through an endless of options to get this family prblem straight.
I know this because I went through something similar, except I wasn't disowned or anything. I was going through many family problems as well, and those were the steps I was told about.
I really hoped I helped because this really sounds like something severe. So please get any help if it's necessary so you won't do any harm to yourself and/or others. I can understand the emotions, but I really don't want you doing anything harmful. =]
