    • Close Physical & Emotional Abuse

      I recently got out of a five year relationship with my boyfriend. The abuse was verbal, emotional and I have to admit it physical. It was hard getting out and I had to hit rock bottom before I could climb my way out. As I am progressing in my recovery I am learning to re-evaluate the friends I keep and I guess I decided to seek online support from people who know what its like to go through similar experiences and who can give comfort and advice in a meaningful way.

      Treatments

      Kickboxing Somewhat Helpful
      I did get the feeling of power that people describe but it allowed me to have some feeling of control
      Leave Working / Worked
      The hardest thing I had to do was to walk away. I still struggle with it every day but it gets easier
      Music Working / Worked
      Pets Working / Worked
      I got two lovely dogs who are now my life. They are a healthy distraction from everything
      Talking Working / Worked
      It does help to talk it out. It allows me to go through the range of emotions that are inside
      Self-help Working / Worked
      I bought a bunch of self help books online and in bookstores and though at first I felt they were doing nothing, when times were hard I found it helpful to refer to them
    • Close Infidelity

      I was involved with a man I loved for over 5 years. The relationship for the most part was abusive. What I struggle with the most is the cheating. A friend of mine hacked into his emails and I havent been able to recover since. He has cheated on me with so many women and has had two actual other girlfriends while we were together. I struggle with self esteem and always ask myself why them and not me? It was the hard part of recovering from the whole relationship.
