I do not feel safe in my own home. My husband presents one face to the world outside our home, but a different face with in our home. I lock myself in my bedroom at night. I rarely take take naps, but when I do, I lock myself in my bedroom.

I wish they had a sad button. I could not bring myself to press the like button. My heart is just breaking for you. I'm not having that same problem but it sounds like a nightmare. Please be safe and know that there are people who care about you. Could you keep us posted on how you are doing? I hope you see some light at the end of that dark tunnel.

Hi @lucyl
You have taken the first important step on the path to safety - telling someone. Please visit the National Domestic Violence Hotline website http://www.thehotline.org/ On this website you will find a phone number to call 1-800-799-7233 or you can use the online chat and get help without saying a word.
It is good that you have a room that you can lock for your safety. I hope you will call the Hotline and work with professionals there to find a permanent safe place for you.
