Toxic/Hostile Environment and being a Live-in

Hi guys, long story short, I’m a live-in at a department where I’m constantly treated like garbage by 2 specific officers. I don’t want to live here, but I didn’t have a choice thanks to a bad breakup and lack of an income to support getting my own place. I don’t let this kill my motivation to do chores or go to calls or training though.

I guess I just don’t know what to do. I’m mainly treated like garbage because the person I’m dating now has bad blood with the 2 officers I’ve mentioned (because one of the officers is a cheating POS and the other supports him). So because we’re dating, they’ve been shitting on me too even though I had nothing to do with it.

Do you guys know what it’s like to be trapped somewhere you don’t want to be in the first place and then get bullied until you can’t take it anymore? I’ve literally considered suicide at one point and even mentioned it in the stupid “township sit down” we had with the higher up officers. Why doesn’t anyone care? What can I do to stop this?
