Hi everyone, I'm quite new to this so I hope I'm doing it right. I need some advice/reassurance. I have realised over the last few months that my husband is emotionally abusive and controlling. I've know he was controlling for a few years but it has all really hit home recently. I have 2 amazing friends who are supporting me through this as I plan to leave, but I'm really worried about what will happen when I go and how he will react (obviously he will be very angry). He has moved me and our 2 DCs far away from my family so I'm planning to go back and stay with relatives. I'm sure he'll figure out where we've gone pretty quickly. What can I do if he turns up banging on the door? Just phone the police? How did any of you deal with this situation. I don't want to be trapped in the house for the foreseeable future. Is he going to carry on trying to control me for the rest of my life?
