God takes care of us in strange ways - sometimes when we are unable to do for ourselves what's best, he presents a situation that forces us to do exactly that.
Now its up to you. I hope you heed the advice of getting restraining order.
I am convinced that at the core of an abuser is extreme weakness. They abuse(among other reasons) to cover their weakness. Bullies are like that too. As long as you act out of fear, such as not protecting yourself because you are afraid it will anger him, you are doing things that are not in your best interest.
He got locked up in a psyche ward because he is crazy it has nothing to do with you. If we were that powerful sheesh…. My RAH overdosed very early in our relationship. He was definitely having mental issues (undiagnosed bipolar) I TRIED to get them to commit him for 3 days NO LUCK. They did so for 8 hours and let him go saying he was mildly depressed. Uh huh.
