I hate this helpless nowhere to go feeling. I don't look like the kind of person who should be in an abusive marriage. I'm educated, to all appearances I'm capable and together. Feel like I'd be laughed out of a DV group. And emotional stuff is so subtle anyway...

There isn't a 'type' of abused person; domestic violence is an equal opportunity crime. And emotional is still abuse just different from physical but emotional leaves invisible wounds. 
It is difficult to end an abusive relationship. It is hard to leave someone you still love.
