I posted a little while ago about my emotionally abusive partner. He puts me down, doesn't do anything around the house, ignores me large amounts of the time in favour for speaking to friends on voice chat on pc, and generally isn't that great.
This is my previous thread: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/relationships/2864484-Second-thread-sorry-Dont-know-how-to-go-about-leaving-half-abusive-DP
I've been to one session of Freedom programme (it was cancelled before so couldn't go), and it did ring some bells, though I still feel it's very low level abuse. However - surely it doesn't have to be abuse to leave a relationship. You can leave for other reasons too.
I am still feeling a bit unreasonable, which is why I'm asking for support. Tomorrow I am moving out, to a flat in a different town, with my 3 year old son. I didn't want to go to a refuge, and was lucky enough to find a place accepting me despite not working (MH issues and childcare costs = no work). I will sleep on a blow up mattress and have only a desk and two chairs, but it's a start.
So I just need some support in going through with this, if it's the right thing to do and how to move on. Please can anyone help? I'm scared.
