suddenly stopped talking…? So what happened was I yelled at my sister because I was trying to get undressed and she wouldn't leave me alone, then my dad put his finger on my head and told me to stop screaming like I'm the parent or he'll smash my head. After that I went in my room and I didn't make any noise and when I try to talk no noise came out and when I did get words to come out I started breathing heavily and covered my mouth and cried a bit. Note this isn't the first time my dad has done something like what he said to me. He's done worse. But it didn't affect me much until now. I try to do stuff like read things then my voice gets lower, and lower, and quicker.

That's the thing the abuse does affect you but it usually gets buried and repressed by you. Then when something happens again it comes to the surface and does more harm on-top of the fresh helping. This time the abuse triggered these memories and a physical reaction. There's only so much crap one can take.
I don't give a shit (pardon my language) who your father thinks he is. Nothing you have or haven't done should bring him to threaten smashing your head in. He's got a lot of issues to deal with if he's doing this consistently and causing a lot of damage with his behavior.
It would be in your best interest to tell an adult you trust be it someone related to you or not or a teacher about the verbal abuse and threats going too far. They need to help you find some counseling and to get him help as well. Be brave about this. A mental-health professional needs to help you work through this and get anything you have buried beneath the surface out and dealt with. I'm afraid to ask you quite frankly what the " he's done worse" means. If it's physical harm the truth about it needs to come out immediately to someone you trust. Your family needs help. ]
