Make a choice and take a risk
Being honest with one's self is the first step.  What do you want?  If you say you want to live alone, what  is needed to make that happen? I think if you worry about what will happen to your six year old, you are doing her a greater disfavour by living at home, and living a lie.  You can live alone and see her.  It's upto you to negotiate that.  Be bold, take a risk. Stop living a lie and dreaming about a life you don't have.  Make it happen.  It's all within your reach.

I can't give much advice...
I think the best anyone can do in such a situation is to be honest with their family about what they think/feel and hope that a better situation can be negotiated.  Sometimes people need to come close to losing something/someone before they can appreciate what they have.  Other times one small step at a time is the best approach to changing a situation.  Whatever you do, it must be your choice, good luck.

That's a tough question, you are probably the only one who can answer it.

As far as living alone...I love it... Good luck!
