As someone who has stayed far too long in an abusive relationship myself, I cannot urge you strongly enough to GET OUT of yours ASAP.

He will become very nasty and accuse you of destroying/abandoning/treating him badly etc..etc.. but don't listen to that shit. He will react against the loss of control. Be prepared to fight your corner.

My heart goes out to you, OP. Get good advice, make sure you have a super support network of friends/family and do what's right for you.

Absolutely not. Your perfect age to find a new relationship. Old enough to know what you like and have interesting life experiences but still have the energy of youth to find the new partner. You know you have to get put of the current situation, so focus on that first. Don't put up with crap because you think nobody else will be interested. They will be.
Good luck
