I really don't know if you are talking to me here, or if you are looking for a success story. I was married 27+ years, lived together 25+ years.
The only and the biggest regret I have is that I did not leave sooner. I was going to leave at least 8 years prior to when I did leave. 8 years prior to me leaving, I actually still had my own mind, I was still actually able to think. When I left, I really do think that I should have just been institutionalized. I felt that I was almost in a catatonic state.
These people destroy you, then they spit you out. You are never enough for them, no matter what you do to try to prove that you love them. The children become game pieces on a game board.
I don't know if this is what you wanted to hear. So I will stop now.
