Yes it did help about 90% when I moved our daughter & I out of the family home, but then the legal court stuff started. So it is better then before, but it's VERY hard.

I'd love to.

I got away from the abuse!!! It is not still happening to me...worked pretty good

Left him 5 months ago, trying to deal with it the best way i know how/

I left while he was at work. So he could not stop me from leaving!!

Usually the best way of dealing with a mentally ill person who doesn't want help.

I still have moments that I think, maybe I shouldn't have given up so soon, but I quickly snap back to reality. I know my abusive ex wouldn't have changed. He will continue to be a miserable excuse for a man -- cruel, hateful and selfish. I didn't want my daughters to grow up thinking that was the way a husband should behave or that they would have to put up with abuse from any man.

I had no choice but to leave. I've been hurt too many times by this person.

It works well when you can do it.

Were separated for one week. Helped us both gain perspective.

It worked for the situation I was in.

I was a rescue mission...

I was adoped by a great loving couple who took me in and loved me unconditionally.

Mostly I just want to forget about it...because I can barely remember it..and sometimes I'm scared that maybe it didn't really happen and it's only in my mind...then again I am not sure...I'm sorry..I just don't know

i left the home i was abused in when i was 16. i am 21 at the moment, and leaving gave me a chance to clear my head and understand what happened to me.
