I always give people in this situation, including myself (yes, I’ve been there!), this advice:

GET OUT NOW!

or, in one word,

RUN!

It seems from what I know of you on this site is that you have run, you did get out! I’m thankful. And I love your stories. Please share more. Tell us your story.

(My cartoons, Sophias, paintings, originals and prints, are available here).
