Forgive me for the following, but it's like that Kenny G song: You gotta know when to fold em, know when to run. You're in a sunk cost situation. Throwing good

Forgive me for the following, but it's like that Kenny G song: You gotta know when to fold em, know when to run.
You're in a sunk cost situation. Throwing good money (time, stress, your dwindling sanity) at this situation is not going to come out in your favor.
You've already got your answer. You're the most miserable and depressed ever? Who on earth would listen to that line and tell you to stay? It's time for you to leave.
Now you just have to work out the specifics.
Don't wait til you're broke, though, because then you'll be really desperate.
Don't confuse the "when it's not there, I want it" feeling with genuinely missing it, because that's pretty much the stereotypical situation with any abusive relationship. Once you're truly free from it, your overall feeling is going to be like there's a giant weight that just lifted from your shoulders.
You can get through this. You've already taken the big step of admitting you're miserable & seeking a solution.
Best of luck.
