I obviously don’t know your situation personally, but if you do a little research I’m sure there are helplines for those being abused which may be more helpful. They’re often very discreet but hopefully will give you someone to talk to who can give you good quality advice about what to do next. Good luck x

Are you an adult (over 18)?

Is there a trusted adult you can speak with, eg school, work, another family member?

Really sorry to hear about your situation, your options are different depending on your age. If you are under 18, you can call Childline and/or talk to a trusted adult at school/college. If you are 18 or over, you could call the National Domestic Abuse Helpline on 0808 2000 247 (at any time) and it could be a good idea to speak to citizens advice who may be able to advise you/signpost to organizations that may be able to help you regarding your housing options.

You really should try to reach out to someone even if its not verbally. This is not right and you deserve so much better. I really hope things get better for you ml
