Options when leaving a toxic relationship

Hello there. I’m wanting to leave my marriage. Not divorce, just a separation for now. I just need some space. I can’t take the yelling anymore. Things have gotten frightening. She’s chased me. She’s put holes in walls. She’s taken doors off so I can’t hide from her. She’s not a bad person…she just has some things she needs to work through. I live in California. Does anyone know if there are like…options, for women in my situation for low income housing? I feel weird calling it “domestic abuse” or “domestic violence” because she never actually hit me. But, idk, I feel stuck. My parents live in a senior community and I don’t have any friends or family I can move in with. I want to take my pets and my wife was the main breadwinner. So I’m having a hard time finding a place. Maybe im just being lazy but I just wanted to know if anyone knows of anything. Thank you.
