I'm a 26 year old graduate student. I'm studying to get my Masters in Secondary Education, English. I also work at the university as a graduate assistant. It helps me pay for my tuition, which is so great. I love what I'm studying and I look forward to an internship I'm starting in the Fall where I'll have the opportunity to actually begin teaching. I'm joining dailystrength.org because I find myself in need of a ridiculous amount of support after an emotionally, verbally and physically abusive relationship. I'm looking forward to meeting other people who have unfortunately gone through similar ordeals. This is the first time I'm reaching out and I want to find what I need to begin healing and, hopefully, help others as well.

Okay, I didn't binge eat last night. Yay me! My goal is for 7 days (especially nights) straight. So, 1 day/night down. 6 to go!
I don't …
I am sending a message to all the people who have supported me, who I appreciate and am thankful for. Hope you have a great day!
I hardly come on here anymore. I'm honestly SO depressed, it isn't even funny. I am not doing well. Pray for me, please?
I miss you too!!!! I wish that I could say that I'm doing better, but - I'm not. I'm in the midst of his ranting and raving cycle at the moment. Is your email address still the same?
so glad to hear things are going okay...i'm good!!
I've recently gotten out of an abusive relationship-- verbally, emotionally, and physically. For a long time, I never thought that the relationship would turn physically abusive, until I was being choked and kicked and my things were being thrown and broken. It's so difficult to accept that it wasn't my fault because he had me convinced that it was. I'm struggling with post-abusive relationship thoughts and experiences. I need this community and maybe I can help others, too. That would be great!
Hi everyone! I'm hoping for and working towards losing 60 traumatic post-relationship pounds. I am ready to shed my old body and embrace my new one...hopefully with some new and positive emotions to accompany it! I've always struggled with my weight but these past two and a half years have been very difficult and I gained so much weight as a result of it. I'm ready for a new direction and I want to offer all of my support to others, as well. Good luck to everyone!
I was in an abusive relationship for a long time and found that food became my ultimate vice/comfort. It destroyed me and now that I'm out of the relationship, I'm looking for support to help kick this food addiction. Late night binges are it for me. That's when I hide and drown my sorrows in pasta, bread, peanut butter and a million other things(not technically all in one night, but you know). It's time to begin a better life--starting with my eating habits. I can't wait! So here goes!
