Your boyfriend is an @$&!!$* (to put it mildly!) You need to get somewhere else? Anyone who actually says you should kill yourself is absolute poison for you. Dont give him the satisfaction. Get mad, not depressed.
I realise you dont have family- any friends? Womens helpline (or domestic violence or whatever)? Social worker? Doctor? Free legal centre (if you want to see if you can chuck him out of the house)? Womens refuge? OK, you cant lift anyhing heavy. You can still leave if you want to. Can you pack the things that are most important to you in (say) several carrier bags that you can move one at a time,so someone can come and pick you up in a car?
Of course, I have no idea how things really are and how ridiculous these options may sound. But please dont dismiss the idea of change completely. And do ring a crisis/suicide hotline if you need to. To quote that awful advert, you have every right to take care of yourself and take action 'because I'm worth it'!
Hang on in there!
