Pretty sure I'm currently in a dv relationship and feeling lost as to what to do. I live in a small town and have no idea where to go for help?? Also thinking of self harm again for the 1st time in many years. Trigger

Do you have a community health centre, doctor, church? As you are in a small town I'd start with my GP as they often or can find out about services in your area. Even the principal of the local school. You can also ring lifeline or 1800respect. If you have relatives or a friend that you trust make sure you inform them what's going on.
His parents witnessed it today and blamed me for him kicking me with steel capped boots on. I didn't speak nice enough and I have no family close by
Ok then I'd definitely start with your GP or if there is a church. Do you have kids?
Yes we have 2 kids and we are married
Definitely make an appointment to see your GP, they can refer you to appropriate services. You won't be able to get out immediately but they will be able help.
Have you tried ringing lifeline, or 1800respect, also can you speak to the police in your area safely?..
Today its like nothing happened all happy and affectionate
Yep that's the nature of domestic violence, never forget it happened because it will happen again eventually.
Omg yes!!! Domestic violence. Get help and OUT.
Call your local womens centre/refuge they are not only a refuge they offer support at the centre.
You can also pm
*Domestic Violence No More on facebook and ask to be added to their secret support group
Also
