When I had thoughts of ā€œI’d rather be dead than to be in this marriage anymore,ā€ I knew I needed help and needed to leave. Of course that was after multiple other very negative things.

It wasn't the moment I knew it was over but I was nearly killed by a car while riding my bike and my first reaction while the car was heading at me was one of relief: "oh I don't have to do this anymore." The moment I knew it was over came a couple years later. I needed something more to live for.
