I’m in a bad living arrangement with an abusive husband and son. I don’t know what to do. I don’t make enough money to stay in my house alone. I should probably move out and get my own place but I’ve lived her 26 years and that’s easier said then done. Help me!

Just do it. Do not stay in an abusive relationship.
When I read the words abusive son and husband- I got a sick feeling in my stomach. Its been almost 30 years since I was in an abusive relationship and had to call the police to escape the situation in the middle of the night with one bag and my 2 month old baby but those words brought the feelings of that night flooding back. I’m not sure what the shelter situation is like in your area, but calling an abuse hotline in most places give you a fast, safe passage to a free place to stay until you can contact caring friends, church members, or family who are willing to have you live peacefully with them at a low cost. The things you have accumulated over the years can’t come with you right away or maybe not ever if your husband chooses to retaliate. Just pack your most favorite things- and more importantly- your very valuable self- make a quick decisive move! When you are in a good environment you will be able to gather the strength to take steps forward that will create a new path of happiness and hope.
