How to leave

2 replies

flowersintheattic2 · 02/02/2025 00:52

Been married over 20 years. Do not work owing to chronic health conditions. However will qualify in a few months which will lead to a job that I can find work in. I have 3 children. I am wholly financially reliable on my husband. I have no savings, no family. I'm stuck. Husband is emotionally abusive and openly admits to gaslighting me. Mental health is poor. How do I get my ducks in a row to leave.

Hiya. You contact your local DV service. Start collecting all documents you need, legal paperwork, bank statements, birth certificates. Tell someone what you are going to do.
Look for a place to stay and what benefits you are entitled to.

Good luck z x

Sounds like you already are getting them in a row. Is your house owned or rented? How old are your kids? Remember you're entitled to at least half of everything including his pension and any savings.
