I changed my phone number, my locks and closed my email account so he cannot contact me. I am in the process of obtaining an RO.

I left at 16 to get away from the drugs and drinking. I don't want to be like that, and I don't want to live like, so I moved in with my grandma and grandpa who have always been my saviors.

I can't have a relationship with my mother right now, because she continues to be abusive. I have severed all ties with her until I can handle her.

I always find somewhere sacred to go like my Bf's mother's house. Her goal is to make her home a sanctuary (something mine will never be) so it's a good place to go to. I also go outside since I live near the mountains or I take a shower or get away through writing and reading if i can't go anywhere. I sometimes run it off and tire myself to numbness.

No contact has worked the best at this point. I am in the middle of the divorce process and it's hard. It's the best thing I've ever done!

He left after the police served him with a restraining order. I enjoyed the peace in our home after he was away. No more fear.
