Please help me escape my abusive relationship for good

If you’ve been following me for a while, you more than likely know what’s going on, but for those who don’t know: I’ve been in an extremely toxic, abusive relationship for the past 6 ½ years with my son’s father. We have a 3 year old together. While I did leave him last year, I (stupidly) came back in March under the promises of “things would change” etc etc. He has been emotionally, verbally, physically, sexually, and financially abusive. I am cooperating with the state in applying for all kinds of state assistance I am eligible for. I have an apartment and have our most basic needs covered. I need help with covering rent at the end of the month as I can’t do it by myself (my rent is $936), I have no consistent means of transportation (there is no bus/public transit in the city I live in) and I really realllyyy don’t want to have to allow my abuser into my home just to help cover these bills. I can manage on my own, but I need help getting on my feet and establishing my independence in the time being.

Any resources, encouraging words (I have virtually no support system), or other help is so much appreciated.

Please please don’t send anon hate or criticism, I cannot stress how hard I am struggling with my own guilt and self-blaming right now

BOOOOOOST

Bringing this back, with an update: I wasn’t able to survive on my own so I had to let him in. Lo and behold the abuse continues. Today he punched a hole in the bedroom door. My dad is going to cosign for a new apartment for me back in my hometown, as long as I cover the costs he is going to help me move. I’ve already got a rental application submitted. I’m done I’m leaving I’m OUT. I have tangible proof and I can break the lease without repercussions through the domestic violence clause in the lease.

I just need help with the intial moving costs and initial housing costs- the apartment I applied for is $645 a month, security deposit same amount. First months rent and security deposit due at lease signing. Moving costs are around $400 (it’s a 300 mile move so it gets expensive fast)

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE REBLOG

I’m almost 15% of the way there!! Please boost!

Because I’m apparently still kind of bothered by something that came up earlier, one thing I didn’t want to go into–because other people’s privacy–but all of it has come up before:

He pulls the same weird denial/shutting down instead of dealing stuff on himself. Including very specifically with medical issues.

This is someone who tried to convince himself that a cracked tooth might have healed itself, rather than go and see about it. He spent time on a burn unit when he was maybe 4, and needed painful surgeries afterwards. I don’t know that he has ever voluntarily seen a doctor or dentist in a non-emergency situation, other than one required physical for a visa application, as an adult. Who is now 46 years old. I know of literally two times he has seen a doctor.

It doesn’t make me happy, but I know better than to push and nag, no better than I like that behavior. He shows enough respect not to do that to me either, and I appreciate it with my own trauma there.

He also basically shuts down in any kind of situation like that–but will go along as moral support anyway if I need it. And try hard to cover up how much he’d rather be literally anywhere else. It doesn’t work that well.

Some inconvenient overlap of difficulties in this area, to put it mildly. It’s not great.

It’s also not the type of situation it might look like, based on limited information about what’s even going on.

There are a number of things like that. This particular bit of disability clash has made things harder for a while, though.
