Thank you. I’m so very overwhelmed with all of this and I’m also only scratching the surface of how bad it all is; I can’t really find the ability to concentrate on all the details anymore. It’s just like endless waves of trauma washing over me and I’m so numb I don’t even notice. I cannot cry anymore, and I just try to make the best out of my days without getting into anything with him. It’s so hard to even review with my therapist because I shut out most of the details. Also I work two jobs, about 11 hours a weekday and 6-8 hours on weekends, and it just makes it hard to accomplish anything or fix anything or feel anything but trying to power through. I hope I can escape too.
In some countries (like Germany) they have special hotels which are essentially free or low-cost, which have the sole purpose of helping women or people in a difficult, abusive relationship gather some distance from their abusive partner. In German they’re called “Frauenhäuser” (women’s houses). Maybe such a thing exists where you live, too?

Thank you. Unfortunately people with unstable housing live in tents in parks here. I don’t think such shelters exist
