After I was told that I didn't cook well, make enough money, wasn't pretty enough, didn't walk right, etc. (and all of this was communicated by yelling and screaming), I knew it was time to step back and assess what was happening - seems as if you are at this point as well and I applaud your willingness to look at what is obviously an impossible situation. Know this: (1) you aren't alone, we are here for you and there are many of us who have successfully navigated out of these toxic and controlling relationships (2) there is help available but you need to get to it - can you find a therapist, counseling center, resource in your area? (3) wishing you were dead is scary stuff, please get to a Dr and get some support today (4) your sons need you and they need you to be healthy and safe, which will keep them healthy and safe. Email me if you want some handouts on managing stress and taking back your power. Sending you a hug.
