Domestic Violence & OCD

I need to leave my abusive husband of 29 years (together for 31 years). The abuse continues getting worse. It started getting worse around Hurricane Harvey, then when I pulled myself and our children from our moldy home for 4 months, then with each relocation, and when I started standing up for myself the last 4 years and going outside walking and grounding and having online friends, and especially the last 2 years between him and my daughter with major OCD. I have nothing. I still don't know where to start. I will continue making calls for assistance. The Women's Crisis Center and others continue failing me because I'm not battered, though he did put his fist on my chin in 2020 and has made horrendous threats. Also, I am very sensitive to mold and chemicals and it's been tough finding a mold free home and we finally have this one that's nearly mold free. I must have the same or better. I can not have worse. My health can't take it. I would hope to be able to find a suitable small rental. Maybe even an RV if I need to but it needs to be mold free and already off gassed from VOCs. I have an 18 year old dog and 8 year old cat to care for. My husband and adult son may be able to care for our cat but they keep failing to care for our 18 year old dog properly and she has had seizures and heart issues in the past. My adult daughter needs treatment for major OCD with ADL's and the best we're finding in the Houston area is $1,500 per day, they don't take insurance, and she likely needs 2-3 months of treatment. I would hope that $250,000 gets us taken care of until divorce proceedings are finished. I can't bring up divorce as it may be a trigger for worse abuse. At this time they know I want a hotel room for sleep and peace and come home a couple of times a day to take care of the dog. I would love to keep this home a bit longer if possible if there is nothing suitable for my medical needs just yet but I don't think I can live with any of them any longer anyway due to the abuse and my beliefs, and they clearly aren't on the same path. My husband and daughter team up to abuse me sometimes and sleep deprive me on purpose and startle my nervous system repeatedly for 2 hours at a time. He's pulled covers off and more and poured water on me in the bed. I don't go away outside as much anymore due to hip issues and more but definitely need to. Often the weather is either too hot or too cold and I don't tolerate extremes as well as I did a year ago. I finally have an old truck to borrow but I've been so extremely exhausted from them that I can't even manage to get away but once every week or two for a couple of hours. It's been so awful. I can't keep enduring this. I tried an online job 2 times for 4 months each time when I thought I didn’t have sleep or energy. Now I really don’t have sleep or energy and therefore the time, plus tending to my daughter’s ADLs, to try to secure my own income at this time. I hope someone, or a few someones, can help me start my new, peaceful life very soon. I really can't continue living with any of them and it's very heartbreaking but I must finally take care of myself and not give everyone all of my time and energy. I need healing and peace. I deserve it. Thank you to all who can assist. I greatly appreciate it. Shalum. Mimi.
