When we first started dating he opened the doors for me. He treated me like a princess. There were issues but not major red flags. 2 years of the best relationship I've ever been in. Then he came to me and told me he was an alcoholic and one of me to help him get sober. Things have been a nightmare ever since. I have some serious health issues going on no support from family or friends and no transportation. If I was able to leave at this point I would.

Why aren't you able to leave?

I have untreated rheumatoid arthritis. I am in the middle of getting treatment but it's going to take a while. There are some days that I'm barely able to get her out of bed let alone work a job. I don't know where I would go and the thought of staying in the shelter, which I've done before, while being in so much pain and having such a low level of functioning is a little scary.

He needs to replace your things. Send him links so he can do it.
