This question hurts so much because I've lost so much and I have absolutely no way of fixing any of it. I try so hard and I'm so tired of working so much for a total ingrate and having zero to show for it. Things are really, really bad. I see no way to fix anything.
Whats up with that (if you feel safe sharing)
My SO. I work two jobs to keep us barely afloat due to cost of living and the financial wreck he's landed us in. He's basically a sociopath and I have no money to leave, despite me working night and day while he watches TV all night, and he does a zillion petty things in exchange for that, including for the last month giving me the silent treatment beyond administrative stuff, throwing potholders at me, shaking his fist in my face for not setting the temperature in the car the way he wants it and threatening to not pay the credit cards in my name, and basically starving my life. There's a million other things but I'm so numb to it it's hard to verbalize.
