From someone who did leave.....you need to know that leaving does not make you any smarter than staying. I used to find myself saying things like this often and someone at Alanon pointed it out to me. Look at all you have done! Celebrate it, and don't even hint at saying you are not a wonderful, amazing,
smart woman. You are!
