Feeling Stuck

I've never joined an online support group before, but I am feeling so stuck. My husband has BPD and I should leave, but I currently can't afford to and am also scared of his reaction when I do eventually leave. Trying to find a way to survive while I save up money and trying to protect my daughter from his outbursts. Looking for any advice / encouragement / support. Thanks for your time.

Hi saline,
Welcome to the boards. ,
I was little hesitant when I first joined this website too. Is there something that has caused you to change your mind?
If you are unsure about things, could I suggest that you look around the site, even if you don't post. You might find some very helpful information. We have several different types of boards for various situations. This board in particular is for those that want to stay in their relationship and try to improve it, but we also have another board for those that are either wanting to leave or are just tolerating their relationship for one reason for another. The advice you get on each of the boards is different so please don't feel like you have to stick with this particular board.
