'I threw it past you, not at you'

Sorry I guess this is a dv one but I think I could be overreacting.

H has been throwing things at me- not heavy things but I find it shocking and scary and I have ptsd and it triggers it.

This eve he was getting angry at me, and I saw he had a packet of baby wipes in his hand and I said- please don't throw that St me. I turned away to go up to the stairs back to my baby DD, and he threw them, not hard and they didn't hit me but again it shocked and scared me.

He said I threw them past you, not at you.

I went upstairs and sobbed in fear and anger.

Am I overreacting.

I am trying to leave by the way.

Are you also in contact with Womens Aid?
They can help your and DC with a safe exit plan.
If you haven't already then do give them a call.
They can also help with counsellors and solicitors in your area if you need them.

Please report your thread and ask for it to be moved to Relationships, OP, and please make contact with Women's Aid who can help you move safely and quickly because he's going to rack it up if he realises that you're planning to leave.

@ weathergames I hope to see a post from you on the Relationships board too.

Very best of luck.
Gather together copies of all the key paperwork as well
e.g.
Passports
Bank account details
Details of his job and salary if you can get them
Photos (and any sentimental items like baby clothes that you want to keep)
Birth and marriage certificates
Details of any savings and investments if you can.

DON'T mention leaving to him at all. The first time he should realise you are leaving is after you have gone.

You really aren't overracting. Keeping your partner in a state of constant unease by deliberately scaring them them is abusive, nasty behaviour.

Make sure you also remove your browsing history.
You do NOT want him coming across this.
Try to act as normal as possible.
This is a dangerous time when things can escalate.
Take care of yourself.
