Not a question but more just needing to vent.
Sunday is d day for me, I'm walking out of my family home and walking away from a life that has been so toxic, I have lived in a relationship with someone who domestically abused me for 10 + years I have stayed in our family home with our children for over the past 13 months trying to discuss and sort out property settlement and the kids with every attempt I have failed as dealing with a person that has no respect and only has the most horrible intentions at hand . I have done wrong too as nobody is perfect but I have owned my mistakes and can say they have made me strong enough to leave strong enough to have to do what I need to for my children and for me to be happy . I do not have family around as they live so far away, and don't have the greatest trust as he has turned most people against me telling them horrible stories shutting me off from people so than I had no one to stand by me, I'm so excited to know that one day the fear and torture and stalking will stop.

I think you'll be surprised. Most people see through their bullshit when they're on the outside of the relationship and step back because they need to distance themselves for it. I think if you approached your family or old/good friends they would be back in a heartbeat to support you through this. I know people become jaded when they hear the "I'm leaving" spiel regularly but if you really mean it reach out because I reckon some if not all will be there for you when you need them. Good luck with your new life starting next week, how exciting!
Hope the big move all went well, and you can breath a sigh of relief and get on with the life you were meant to live xx
