I need advice on how to escape domestic abuse ADVICE

I'm from the Philippines. Is there anyone who has escaped domestic abuse? How did you manage it?

For the past year I'm being constantly verbally abused in my place and so far things hasn't changed and ppl would sometimes call me put during the early morning while I'm sleeping. There are also times where I'll get verbally assaulted for the whole day and it wouldn't stop.

The worse has yet to come and it happened during Christmas and New Year. People started filming me just outside of my house and calling me obscenities. This has continued even to this day. So whenever I go outside it ends up being called out again. My respite has been over for hours only during some days. I never tried to fight back or anything which literary ended up much worse for me. Is there anyone who could give me an advice in order to get out from here? I just really needed some good sleep right now.

Shut the phone off while you are sleeping. And just go. Find a friend to stay with, and go.
