I've been there, too: the point where I turn off my phone because I can't take another hurtful word. Then, there is the fear of what I will find when I eventually turn my phone back on.

I find that putting my phone away for the night, getting a good night's sleep, and facing the words in the morning is often the best medicine.

I too have been the receipent of such calls.  Turning off the telephone saved my sanity and life. 

Rest, Get some sleep and pray.

Things will feel better in the morning

 

You are not alone.

II can so relate and I have even deleted his mean drunken words without listening to it these days. I deserve so much more than the verbal abuse my exAH has for me. Sending you love and support! Dettachment and not taking his disease personally helps me.
