Hey ....
I understand you have a lot of frustration and pent up anger .
When you marry , not only does your relationship with your mate change,but so does your relationship with his family .
When you were in love it would have been totally different from marriage .
couples are often surprised and confused by the challenges faced in marriage and without previous preparation for the bumps along the way , couples often conclude that their relationship isn't working .
One of the biggest challenges of married life is to get along well with in laws. Though this goes for both partners in a marriage it's the woman who is affected more .
You should always have a realistic expectation , no matter how close you are to your in laws it won't be the same as living in your own house . My suggestion would be to see a marital counsellor and deal with all the issues your facing with your marriage

Hope this helped
