Hello,
Welcome to the forum and thank you for your post. I’m sorry to hear about your situation.
What you found out must have been very frightening and its understandable you are planning your exit. You don’t have to deal with this by yourself and I would encourage you to reach out for further support. A local domestic abuse service can provide you with ongoing support and help you with a safe plan to leave.
You can contact a Support Worker from Women’s Aid via the live chat where you can chat in confidence about your situation. Support workers will not tell you what to do but they can give support, practical information, and discuss with you any options that are available based on your specific circumstances.
Take care and keep posting
Lisa
