It's awful what happened to you and I think it is FABULOUS that you left, good for you! For me, I found that journaling, therapy, reading and reflecting all helped me understand what had happened. Yet the real key was when I understood family systems and realized that I was raised in a family where some of this was acceptable and I was always trying to please - and as such, I was more tolerant of his initial behavior which started the whole cycle. You have to find out what works for you, but you will get there, step by step, bit by bit:)) Hugs.
