Hi, I'm new here.
I have been in an abusive relationship for 13 months and 1 week. He has never hurt me physically but manipulates me emotionally. This has gone on for such a long time and it's so hard to get out of it. I don't have the courage to leave and stand up for myself. My mother was in an abusive relationship and her and I were both abused by this man so we moved to where we are now to escape him and now I'm in the situation she was in only I am experiencing this as a teenager. I don't have a social life anymore. I have changed so much for him and it's still not enough and I'm scared. He pities me. Saying he doesn't leave me because he does not want me killing myself (I have struggled with self harm in the past but have been clean for 1 year and 4 days, I still can't believe it myself) but he does not understand that by being with him I have the urges to do that more than I would if I was single. I need advise. I need someone to help me with working up the courage to leave him and better myself. So please I'd really appreciate it. Thank you all so much.
