Hi everyone I don’t know what to do. I’m married. My husband says he doesn’t wanna be with me. He’s very abusive mentally and emotionally since I’m a stay-at-home mom. He calls me bum and that I’m worthless and I’m the only one that takes care of our son I personally can’t take it anymore. We have a one year-old son. I just feel stuck. I moved to a different state and I have no one here I wish I had my own money. He kept begging me to stay home with our son and I don’t have anything I wanna leave him, but he tells me all the time that he’ll take my son away from me. All because I don’t work. I just am lost for words. I don’t know what to do anymore. And I don’t wanna tell my family because they’ll throw it in my face. I just don’t know what to do. I feel stuck and I don’t want my son to see me like this.

Look into local non-profit resources that can get you out of that situation quickly and safely. Family may throw it in you face but don’t let that stop you from getting the help you need. Trying to do if on your own may put you in the exact position he wants you in to take your son.

LEAVE. record conversations, save messages and records of his abuse. start setting money aside somehow and find a hotel, or find a shelter, or find a friend or ANY family member who will let you stay with them, get a tinder and find a man who will show you your worth, you deserve to be free, and thank goodness he says he wants you to go, because you want to go too!! apply for jobs in secret. you deserve to start over and be FREE!! it’s actually an amazing opportunity when you think about it
