      Mood February 17, 2009 5:00pm

      One day I dream that I will be living in a nice home. I already live in a nice home, one that I made an intention to be ours. It overlooks the park, …

      hello, im new here, but mosy definately it sounds like ABUSE. I have some info, an ebook that may help youd where he is concerned. I am still trying to grasp that we will most likely never get validation from the places we seek it, i truly believe a person cannot understand unless been/going through it. However, listen to your gut, that is the only true validstion you need and not listening to our guts i think is essentially how we get so deep in these toxic relationships....Trust YOURSELF!!:) As for the pain med problem, my mom and my sister have had the same issue, esp my mom for probably 10+ years and it is hard just to watch and be around. Recently though in the last year both have been clean, they both have been prescribed soboxone, not sure how to spell but it is pronounced (so-box-own), if you havent already maybe talk to your doctor about it. Hang in there!

    • Close Physical & Emotional Abuse

      I grew up in an emotionally abusive environment. I continue to repeat that pattern and it destroys me to think my son is in a similar household. Albeit, I am aware and give him a lot more love than I ever got. Current relationship is emotionally abusive. last six years have been very difficult, this last has been one of the worst of my life and I feel close to a breakdown. I worked hard to create a successful life despite my limitations. That has all slipped away and now I have to rebuild.

      Treatments

      Abuse Counseling Considering
      looking for support networks and groups.
      Art Working / Worked
      Writing/Journalling - I adore writing and wonder if one day I may earn a living from it. I do the Artists Way and the Morning Pages bring magic into my life. I just have to keep on track - which isnt easy with a crazy maker OH. Its perfect for free flowing notes.
      Forgiveness Not Working
      How many times can one forgive. My body has put barriers up now. I can't control that. Forgiveness will come when I feel safe.
      Leave Considering
      I have moments when I really think - this is it. a lot of the time I fantasize about a new home with my son and I. The images get stronger, eventually maybe when there is enough detail in my imagery it will be time to be there.
      Music Working / Worked
      a pleasant escape and relaxes
      Psychotherapy Not Working
      I have been in and out of 1-1. It helps me understand myself. It cannot help me during the times when he is undermining me, crazy making, witholding and generally undoing any good stuff I manage to do for myself psychologically. Without it though, who knows I would probably be worse off.
      Talking Working / Worked
      I couldnt live without the internet, support groups and dear friends, my therapist being one of them who I can air things with. Hearing your thoughts aloud, is really important.
