The first thing you will notice is that you are not alone. Most shelters have counselors available for you to talk to about your experience with your abuser. You can also get the needed services to help you stand on your own two feet with out the abuser. You might not have so much privacy and be prepared to share all of your information with staff.
You will also find that just being around people that have experienced the same things you have will give you the courage to move forward. Some shelters also may offer legal help getting a restraining order, referrals to other places in the community that can help you and in most cases these services will be offered free of charge.
