How do I leave?

[notmywords]

I think it's over. I'm sick of my EA DH.

I don't want to do this anymore.

He'll never agree to leave the house, I can't afford to rent.

What do I do?

He's currently giving me the silent treatment, which is a regular occurrence but makes a change from the constant criticism.

I am feeling panicky with chest pains and shaking.

Please help.

secretlifeofbees and well done for staying so strong.

It wasn't easy but ringing womens aid was the best thing I ever did. It was like the validation I needed to see that it couldn't go on. She gave me a real good talking to... which I needed and she was so supportive. I advise anyone to give them a call if you think you're in an abusive relationship as I thought deep down that everyone would say i was just as bad or something...
pudding you sound like you're making great progress too, I remember reading your posts a while ago when we were both on the 'wrong side'...
