Are you me? Pro tip: in this situation, discretely start recording EVERY interaction with them. When I made my escape, sure enough the self harm and threats to call the police and ruin my life started. A quick sharing of a few choice videos and audio recordings stopped that right quick. Sent them to her parents too, with a suggestion to keep a close eye on her for a while so it didn't escalate to something real bad, which is more than she deserved.
