Where are you now?

Maybe I missed where you are in your post but I am going to assume that you are overseas somewhere and married to a Muslim.

I did that too but I got out so be encouraged.

Try to plan an escape. If you have family or friends you can trust in your home country..let them know you are in danger. Because you seriously are.

The focus should be on getting yourself out. But be sure to keep your plan secret. Tell NO ONE except for someone in your home country that can help you.

Trust no one in his country.

Perhaps someone in your home country can arrange to get a flight for you. Note the times he is away from you there and have the plan in force to get transportation to the airport.

If you can put some funds in a secret place. Pack purses with some personals and clothing and keep hidden in a closet so you can leave hastily.

You have been abused and abuse gets worse in time.

This is a serious situation and you are in great danger. Get out.

I am sorry you have endured this but you can do it. Stay calm and focused and act as if all was OK.

I pray you will be safe. Keep your cool at all times and get out.
