TW: mention of mental health/suicidal thoughts

i (20f) have been living with my (now ex) partner (23m) for about a year now. we ended things back in late february and surprisingly things were alright for a while. as of recently things have just been getting worse and worse, he’s been trying to control me (who i can and can’t hang out with, what im allowed to do etc.), emotionally manipulate me and many other things, it’s really been taking a toll on my mental health, to the point where i’ve even considered taking my own life. he also has a history of physically abusing me, yet at the time i dismissed it as if it was nothing (though i had visible bruises). he’s threatened me many times with calling the police, kicking me out and even threatened me physically.

i unfortunately don’t have a place to go, ive been trying my hardest to get a job but i haven’t heard back from anyone. i can’t ask my mum for help because there are months where she’s barely getting by, and i don’t really have contact with family from my dads side ever since he died.

it’s also getting to a point where im losing friends because of him. i’m a very introverted and socially anxious person so making new friends would also be difficult.

has anyone else been in such a situation? what should i do to get out of this asap? also, please let me know if this is a good subreddit to post on, or wether i should post this somewhere else.

i’d also like to mention that i’m NOT in america, im located in eastern europe
