I don't know where to start.. I hadn't been with my partner long then I fell pregnant our son is now 20 months old.. he would say things while I was pregnant get my angry then call me crazy and insist I need antidepressants I have currently been on theses since 2022.. yet still my partner argues with me to the point he tells me to hurt myself so I do.. and now calling me a fat c#*t I was in an extremely violent relationship which he is fully aware of so confuses me to why he would treat me this way?

you have gone from one abusive relationship into another one. That is a common scenario. This is no life for you and your child who is seeing you as his mum being abused.

You do no need anti depressants; you need to be rid of him to improve your life. Do contact Womens aid and get their assistance

He's abusive. He's harming you - and your child. This is not a safe relationship for you OP.
Is thre anyone in real life you could speak to? Or a GP? Health visitor?

He’s an abusive cunt that’s why. You got pregnant before you really knew him and now you’re seeing his true disgusting colours.

Do you honestly want your child to grow up with this abuse? Please leave for your DC even if not for yourself

Who owns the property you live in, if he has no claim on it tell him to leave, call the police if he kicks off, have someone with you when you tell him to leave.

why he would treat me this way?

Well, you'll get lots of people telling you he's abusive and there's no doubt he's immature and a dick.

But the reality is that you became pregnant very early into a new relationship where neither of you knew the other properly and couldn't possibly have known if the other was someone you'd choose to have a long term relationship, let alone a baby with.

He doesn't love you and doesn't want to be with you but feels trapped. Without a toddler in the mix, one of you would probably have ended it by now but you've had a baby, he's tried to do the right thing, you're hoping for a happy ever after and now none of you is happy.
