I stayed in a abusive relationship because I had noware to go . I don't have a income and waiting for ssi descions . It was easier being abused then being on the streets with no income or a place to put your belongings. I was tormented strangled , sufficated held hostage humiliated and he told people u was the abuser I gave up all my friends so he wouldn't be jelous and to keep the peace . Finally he went to prison and I was ordered to testify. I am homless no income and because we didn't have a child together I don't qualify for a grant. And ware I strat is ware alit of abuse happened. This was a ongoing thing multiple arrest for violance and stranglation he had went to two anger managemet programs not finishing one .
