Does anyone know of a FREE hotline that offers advice for those being emotionally abused?

I am in an emotionally abusive relationship and cannot get out of it bc i am afraid to be alone. My significant other has said everything to hurt me and I have tried ending our relationship, but i keep going back to him.I know that our relationship is destructive, but have the strong urge to be loved.

I am only 21 and have my whole life in front of me. Does ANYONE know of any hotline or messageboard that offers advice for those in an emotionally abusive relationship.

Update:

i can luckily say he has not resorted to anything physically abusive but this dysfunction is taking a toll on me. I cannot even focus in class anymore and i am always stressed and worried.

    I really beleive that you should share your problem with someone outside of the web business. A professional you might know in the community or so. The problem with the internet is, once you tell them your situation, everybody and his brother or sister knows it, and it become everybody's business.

    really take a look outside and see what follows. I have a friend of my wife who is in a similar situation and her talks to her a lot about it. It seems to keep him on the straight and narrow..

    I hope this will help

    all the best and our thoughts are with you.
