Hi @kw1904861 Since I am no expert in the area, I think your best bet is to call the National Domestic Abuse Hotline for their expert and professional advice.

@kw1904861 You certainly are in a quandary. I echo what Scott has said, call the Domestic Abuse Hotline 800-799-7233 for their guidance. I am proud of you for finding a place to go to, and would hope you let us know what happens in the next few days.

@kw1904861, I agree with @indiannascott and @rmftucker. You will benefit most from the advice with professionals trained in abusive behavior and someone who knows your husband. Please call both the National Domestic Violence Hotline http://www.thehotline.org/ 1-800-799-7233 AND schedule an appointment for yourself alone to talk with his doctor.

You must keep yourself safe and this may mean that you have to remove yourself from your home. This doesn't mean you don't love him. If you are afraid that he will harm himself, tell his doctor or a social worker. These are people trained to help both you and your husband to find help. Can you make an appointment with his doctor?

@kw1904861 How has everything been going for you? Have you been able to move out as planned? Please take care and let me know. Becky
