I am married for 7 years. Ever since I married, I have been severely abused by my in-laws. There is no physical abuse. But mental. My husband was also verbally abusive in the first 4 years, but after the birth of our little daughter, he has been slowly understanding, helpful and even loving. He is very attached to our daughter and therefore I don't feel overly stressed out.
Prior to our marriage the husband's properties - He has two apartments, has been in modified to their name- one is father-in-law and husband and other one is mother in law alone. Both the EMIs are paid by us. We were not allowed to stay in either of the apartments. Both are in different cities in India, and are occupied by the in-laws.
I am not allowed to quit job or take a break. When met, they curse me, harass me and even curse the child. My mind is never in peace. I am always in the fear of meeting them and trouble occurring. Without provocation, they are saying the houses will not be given to anyone and it is their sole asset.
Asset handling is secondary. Please advise me how to manage the mental abuse.. Reporting to police may result in divorce, isn't it? How do you as a third party see this situation?
