    • Close Breakups & Divorce

      I am separated from a man who was/is emotional abusive. I had gone through a really bad divorce before and lost everything. He seemed to expect me to bounce right back after we were married. He told lies to my child and it got to the point where I couldn't take it anymore so I left.

      Treatments

      It has worked in that I am not subjected to it anymore but I am lonely.
