Yeah - doing it yourself is no fun. Staying is no fun. I was in that particular situation, myself, for years - over a decade, to be honest - until things absolutely forced my hand. If that had not happened? I'd have STILL been in that situation, sad to admit. But fear is a huge factor; and I had no job, no prospects, etc..and two kids at home, at the time. Horrible.
And, now? Finally alone (for the great part), and I STILL aint got my shit right. Honestly, the old habits are the hardest to break, especially at my age - at least, you are young! You're also smart as hell, and you WILL figure this out. May not seem like it, now..but..it WILL come.
