You can start on the path to seeing things for what they really are by getting into counseling and giving Al-Anon a try. Start learning about yourself first.
I believe I phrased it differently by using the word "bravery," but "courage" will work as a substitute in this particular case:
Courage is NOT the absence of fear; it is doing what is right and best for you IN SPITE of your fear.
It's possible you do see things the way they really are right now, but you don't have the necessary tools yet to assess the situation and then take the appropriate action.
I hope you begin your journey to take those steps. And if you ever decide to leave, it will be in spite of your fear ...
