You are doing what you need to achieve independence, yet, no matter what you do, or what skills you achieve, the best lesson for you is to have the strength to leave and have nothing. I know you will survive. Many of us have. What is the worst that could happen? You may need to rely on others, and I know it is hard to trust anyone. Take the chance. DO NOT LET HIM HAVE ONE MORE MOMENT OF YOUR LIFE. I wish I could be there to help you, yet it is up to you, always. Come on, girl. Get going. Look for help in your community. There are safe houses. Been there. Go. DO NOT LOOK BACK. It is hard.
If someone loves you, they do not hurt you...

There is always somewhere to go. Have you ever heard of women's refuge centers? They will help you get onto your feet and help you to find a job. There are many forms of abuse, Physical and emotional. If you do decide to leave him and you are afraid of this man the police can always be there at the house while you collect your belongings. Keep your options open. You can do it just be positive with yourself. Think what is best for you in the long run, Being independent on yourself or stay in a rut where you know you are feeling hopeless and worthless. Stand up for yourself.

Most cities have a temp service. Go there they will place you and often employers will hire temps on full time after they see how they work out. Get out as soon as you can, even if you have to go to a shelter for a while. Contact the Salvation Army or other Christian relief service in your area. Go to legal aid and get some legal advice. Best Wishes!

You don't have friends or relatives that you can turn to? Always remember, human being are survivor, if you continuous to live under him, you can never be independent. When there is no turning back, you will make yourself employed.
