Ive got a way out of the abuse but I'm scared. It's taken months to figure this out (it ain't simple, legal problems visa issues The Hague convention all play a part. Can't just up and leave.) I've found a way out but I need to make a move quick. Best time to do it is about 4 weeks from now. I know this logically. But I'm scared. Scared to take the leap. Scared to stand on my own (never done that before). Scared of being financially independent. I'm so scared.
Help me hold it together before I pass up what might be my only chance to go

Some places will allow you to rent privately without an income if you're willing to pay x amount of months rent up front, £14k is a decent amount and should see you through a good few months while you get yourself on your feet. Good luck. You're so brave, anyone brave and smart enough to sort out what you've sorted there will no doubt be able to make a success once you get here.

Another person cheering you on OP. I remember some of your previous ones posts I think. I really hope this all goes to plan, it sounds like you are being meticulously organised and cautious- you WILL do this!

You sound strong and organised OP, hardest thing will be for you to keep acting normal as you count down. Do you have a Plan B that will loop back to Plan A, that way if things go a tad squiffy but don't derail completely you can switch without going into a panic? Stay strong and careful
