Welcome to EmpowHER. I am glad you reached out to our community. Sometimes, just being able to express your feelings without being judged or ridiculed can help lift your spirits.
Though I do not know you personally, I feel confident saying that in no way are you a loser, nor should you feel grateful to have a verbally abusive husband, or feel inferior. You deserve to be loved and respected. Your children need you.
I realize how difficult it must be living this way and how hard it would be to leave. But, your physical and emotional health depend on it, as does the health of your children.
Anonymous, do you have family of your own, such as parents or siblings, with whom you and the children can move in with? Is there a close friend whom you can move in with until you get on your feet and afford a place of your own? Does your church or local community have a shelter for women and children who are in an abusive environment?
