I would just add for anyone reading and feeling that this thread also applies to them, that leaving home should be carefully planned (except if you are in immediate danger of harm.) If you live with an abusive person (whether they abuse you or another member of your family) the risk of physical harm is likely to increase when the abuser realises that he is being 'left'. Their feeling of control is being lost. So its best if you can to get some help to plan your exit safely.
