Torn between staying and leaving abusive partner

My partner is emotionally abusive, verbally abusive, and emotionally unstable, making our relationship impossible to maintain

What I wish I knew
"I wish I knew how to escape the abuse without causing more harm"
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't underestimate the difficulty of leaving an abusive relationship, it's a complex and painful process"
