How do I go on living like this?

NC for this.
Have been with my partner for 4 years. We have children together and I’m due soon. He has always been verbally/emotionally abusive, claims I’m a nobody and he has made me the person I am, calls me names etc etc. I have an older child from a previous relationship too. More recently he got physical by grabbing me and pulling me into the room then shutting the door and standing infront of it so I had to stand and endure his verbal abuse. I told him I don’t want to continue the relationship. He said he hates me anyway. He’s made it clear to me before that if he goes he is taking the children, so now I’m stuck in a position of having to live with someone that hates me… anyone got any advice or been in a similar situation? He’s a sub-tenant also.

When he’s is out of the house contact Women’s Aid.
Make sure you close any browsing history and change any passcodes or passwords.
You and your children need to leave as soon as it is safe to. His behaviour is likely to escalate especially if he thinks you might leave. Be very careful.
If you are pregnant please tell your midwife the situation. They will have had patients in a similar situation to you before.
