Abusive Relationships

I need to talk, but I don't want to be known. I am saying that flat out. Say anything you want, but I have to get this off my chest.

Friday night, my ex went out and decided to come to my house drunk. He was puking everywhere and was generally unpleasant.
In between vomiting and stumbling about, he proceeded to say very hateful things to me. This I was prepared for, but not quite.
I decided to leave him be and go to bed. He followed me and wouldn't let me leave the room until I listened. It took a while, but I left and went to another room. he went there as well and tried to keep me from leaving.
When I told him I was leaving the house, he started to hurt himself by banging his head into the wall and doorframe. I was terrified that he was going to do something, well, awful, so I gathered up my child and I left in the middle of the night.
I stayed with a good friend for a few days and I have come back to the house. He doesn't remember a thing. The sad part is that he kept telling me that he was going to kill himself if I didn't go back to him.

Things have settled down today, but he still won't back off. I do what I can to avoid him, but I am also trying to be kind because of our child.
I don't have questions, but I wanted to get this off my chest. I told a friend about this and he wasn't very happy about it, but there isn't anything he can do and I really need to get this out. I suppose it is therapy.
I didn't think I was worth this much trouble. He is having a difficult time adjusting to the break up, and I respect that.
I did have feelings for him. I still cared. But any love and respect I had for him died Friday night.
I am going now. I just wanted to get this out of me. It's been a long weekend.
 
I wish you the best of luck and you've definitely made the right decision to remove yourself and your child from this situation.
 
Your child needs positive role models. This man is not an example of that.

That's not the sad but the most abusive part of it in my eyes.

You better don't go back. Once you do, it's just a matter of time he's going to blackmail you again and again.
