This worked out well for me!!! Like @Susurrus said, just leave it in the home, maybe in a main room like a living room or kitchen but out of sight. And it wouldn’t hurt to make a protective pouch or carry protection crystals, like black Tourmaline or black obsidian, Fluorite, selenite, lepidolite helps with emotions. It’s one of my favorite go-to’s.
I wish you well, no matter what you decide. But you are in my thoughts and prayers!!! 
Blessed be 
Edit: there are crystals that reflect harm or ill-will that which is placed on you.
Pyrite is a great idea to use.
Black kyanite, lapis lazuli, malachite, black tourmalated Quartz is another great one.
