Physical & Emotional Abuse Support Group
Abuse is a general term for the treatment of someone that causes some kind of harm (to the abused person, to the abusers themselves, or to someone else) that is unlawful or wrongful. No one deserves abuse, period. Abuse can be emotional, physical, or sexual.
Well, I did it!! I got on the plane and left! I am safe back home. I thought I would be so heart broken and I was terrified to leave him!! Then something odd happened to me, I am actually happy! I'm so happy that I could cry not tears of pain but, JOY! It feels so good not go be criticized, put down, called names, hurt, etc. He still texts and calls me and it makes me cringe when he does. He texts me bad names etc because he realizes he has no more power over me. (I will be changing my number very soon). I left jobless, broke, broken and in pain and now I gain a piece of my happiness back everyday! Also, I have a job interview on Monday! I feel so incredibly blessed!! Glory to God! I just wanted other people who are going through abuse to realize you CAN leave him! Just take that leap and I promise you, you will not regret it!! My prayers and love go out to you all. Take good care of yourselves.
You will find the longer you are out, the clearer headed you will become. I hope you will find a good trauma release therapist asap. Healing is not linear, not even after you leave. You will experience a mish mash of feelings that will bring up and down and back and forth. So, its critical to get into therapy as quickly as you can.
Enjoy your freedom and your life!!!
