1. You will become more capable of addressing other aspects of your life. You'll gain mental energy and a space in your mind to consider your own dreams, hopes, and goals when you are not occupied with keeping a failing, destructive relationship from ending.
2. You will start to have more faith and confidence in your own decision making abilities. Freed from exposure to constant criticism, you will see that you are capable of managing your life and successfully managing your life.
3. Other relationships will improve and grow. While involved in a toxic or emotionally abusive relationship, it is difficult to be invested in your other friendships and relationships. You might feel pressured not to see other people outside the relationship, and even if you do spend time with them, your level of distraction over your toxic relationship may keep you from being capable of fully investing in the life and concerns of the other party. Escaping the toxic relationship will free you mentally to be able to be a better family member or friend to others.
4. Your sense of dread will begin to lessen. When you aren't anticipating regular criticisms and controlling actions of your partner, you will begin to feel calmer and more relaxed. Your mental and physical space can become a sanctuary rather than a war zone.
5. Your symptoms of depression begin to lessen. Your partner's continuous criticism and hurtful behavior has probably increased your depression. If you find that you are overwhelmed, you may want to consider getting some counseling or medical intervention for additional support.
