Sounds like you are in a rough space, feeling trapped. Do you have any support around you that you can talk to? Do you have any boundaries in place to deal with this kind of emotional abuse? What are the physical barriers to moving away apart from his threats of self harm?

Alot of learning if this is u read the tools skills and such on here if not read them any way expecially the communication part. Also maybe do u see a counselor ? They could help... .u have to be strong ... .
