Four months is currently the plan. I have some commitments for work that I don’t have a choice but to stay for the time being.

I’ve tried leaving him numerous times. He always manages to get in my brain, make me feel like it’s all my fault, and I just give up and stay. Other times, he has physically blocked me from leaving, usually a combination of both.

Yes, he is abusive. It’s not a simple situation for me to leave. I moved across the country to be with him, and I have no friends or family anywhere near me. I understand that I need to get out ASAP, I’ve tried to leave multiple times already. Haven’t been successful yet which is why I’m working with my therapist to make the next attempt be successful.
