Today, my bf slapped and choked me

We always had little situations we would get into and he would restrain or block me from leaving but I rationed that because he wasn't hitting me it wasn't abusive but I see now that I was wrong. I should have left the first day he put his hands on me but I stayed. I was staying with him and am estranged from my family so all I had was him. No car or friends/family close to the area we were in.

Over a small insignificant argument he decided to slap me and then repeatedly choke me to the point where I thought I was going to die.

I ended up reaching back out to my family for help and they got me a hotel room for the night. I've never felt so hurt, angry, betrayed, and alone. He was all I had and now I feel like I have nothing.

I just wanted to vent so thanks to anyone who read the whole thing
