How to leave EA

I am currently with my partner who is an emtional abuser. We split a over a year ago and I wish I was strong enough to keep it like that! He managed to make me feel bad and wormed his way back into my affections. He treated me so nice and made me enjoy the relationship again that's why we got back togther he made me feel that things we're great and that we should have more kids we already have one. So I was stupid and I am currently pregnant. Once he found out I was pregnant he changed back to a horrible man. He stopped talking to me won't even sit in the same room as me. If I'm in the living room he will sit in bedroom and vice versa. I don't feel he is happy about the baby but used it to control sex. Now I have not been well he hasn't got sex so I feel he punishes me by making no effort. It hurts so much as all I want is to have a family with a loving partner and be happy togther I think as I never had a father figure growing up I have held onto keeping my family togther. I now realise I need to get out! He constantly argues with my other child and my child behaves so much more when he isn't around. I know I need to leave him again but find it hard as he has such a hold on me

Oh lovely, this is not an easy thing to do. You need support.

Can I direct you to the emotional abuse thread on here, womens aid (yes for someone in your position), the Freedom Programme - they have a good book too - and Lundy Bancroft's Why Does he do that.

He sounds horrible. You've got out once, you can do it again.
