He hates me being on this site, He gets mad at me because of my problems. I can't really blame him.

LQ,
You have a right to seek help. You cannot help it if you have depression, it is an illness like any other illness and needs to be treated as one.
If your boyfriend is not supportive in your efforts to find help, what does that say about
the relationship?
You have to take care of YOU. No one else is going to.
I hope you continue to post here, you will find lots of support from people who do care and have been where you are.
Stay strong LQ.

You don't understand. I told you I couldn't leave him. I told you he would come after me. You wouldn't listen.

LQ,
There are shelters you can go to that are safe. There are crisis lines you can call when he is at work that will help you. Go to the top of this formun and start with those resources. They care and can direct you to more.
You have to believe that people do understand and do care that have never met you. It is called compassion. It does exsist. You can get help, if you have children, they can go with you. It may not be the best answer, but its safe and they will help you get on your feet.
If you cannot do that, go to the nearest Catholic Church/parish house at anytime day or night, and they will help you. Catholic charities run one of the biggest womens/childrens abuse shelters in the country.
Stay strong/stay safe.

We know that it is hard and that you are afraid. But you are going to have to take steps to get out of that environment. You shouldn't have to live in fear. Trina gave you some excellant resources. Please do use them for your own safety. In this day and age, there isn't any excuse to stay with an abusive man. Do this for yourself. We want to know you are safe.
Take care, and do look after you. There is help for you.
Hugs, Karen
