I don't know what to do. Last night my husband pushed me to the floor and I hit the fridge and fell on the heater. It left a big bruise on my arm. He did this once before, he pushed me in the tub trying to get my cellphone from me so I wouldn't call the cops. I fell hard enough to get a bone confusion which feels like a broken arm but it isn't actually broke. I have a 3 yr old by my previous husband and a 6 month old by my current one. He yelled at the top of his lungs at my little baby last night saying "Brice shut up" because he was crying trying to fight his sleep and he yelled like 3 feet away from him. He has put holes throught the wall, closet and broke a bunch of glass and, a highchair. And when he picked up and threw the highchair and broke it a piece flew over and hit my 6 month old that was playing on the floor. I hurried up and grabbed him b/c he was crying and I told my husband "you hit him" and he said no I didnt. He didn't have any remorse at all. He didn't even feel bad afterwards. He has anger issues and I don't know what to do to make him better. I do have jealousy issues and I don't really trust him. He lied to me a couple weeks ago about pills he was hiding norcos which is like vicodin. He had surgery for a cyst in his wrist and took over 80 pills in 2weeks which is ridiculous I think. And he said he's sorry and he would never lie again and then he lied to me the very next day about how many motrin he had in his mouth. I don't wanna ruin my 6 month olds life. I left my other husband and now he has nothing to do with our 3 yr old. And I feel its all my heart. My mom was beat on by my dad for 5 yrs. She said it just gets worse. My mom would hurt him if she knew what he was doing. I don't wanna end up like her :( please help idk what to do.

" Hi

I'm new on this board, but will tell you this is clearly not right! No one has the right to put a hand on you or yell or scream. If you don't leave right away it will only get worse. Your life can be in danger. Don't let your children get traumatized any further.
I know its going to be very hard and scary, but you'll be surprised at how much domestic violence services help. They will take care of you and keep you safe.
Once your out don't look back. He will never change.
Be safe....sending you strength! "

" OMG that is just too horrible. You do not want your children living in this kind of situation. You can be killed if you stay.

Listen to those of us who care about you and your children. Ilene has given an number to call and like the others said. DO NOT LET HIM KNOW YOU PLAN TO LEAVE!!!!!!!!

Be safe, please

" He went to the doc. Today and admitted to them that he needs help. They put him on abilify and are gonna take blood work to see if something could be causing these rage attacks. I told him I'm gonna call the cops next time. He said ok. I don't want my son to grow up without his dad because I know if we break up that his dad probrably won't come around. This is my 2nd time being married and I'm only 22. I wanna have faith that he will change :( I will keep you guys updated and maybe this pill if it works n e ways can help someone else. "

" Mom, if you arent going to leave him, can I ask that you get some kind of emergency escape plan in place - just in case? Gather together all of your important documents, birth certificates, drivers license, spare car keys, money, get some clothes in a bag and hide it either somewhere safe in your house, or in someone you trusts house. Also, make sure you have an escape route out of your house in case you need to leave with your kids in an emergency. Use the number Ilene has given you, just to find out what help you can get if you either need to or decide to leave. This is not me telling you to leave, just to get a plan in place for the worst case scenario. Stay on here and seek support and advice, there is a lot of experience and wisdom on here. No one will judge you whether you leave or not. Please look after yourself and your children "

" I am so sorry that you are going through this. You and your family do not deserve this treatment! It is dangerous to you and your kids for you to be with him. He has already proven that he is violent. Please try to find somewhere else to stay immediately. Even if you think there is nowhere to go, think of all your options, even ones you think unlikely.

I also was married young, I am 22 as well. I have been divorced now from my abusive ex for about six months. Being divorced at a young age really isn't the worst thing. It is better than living with someone who treats you like this.

Please keep researching abuse and reading the stories here. This is a wonderful group with people who can understand what you are going through. You are not alone! Best wishes and take care! "
