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.
You're taking appropriate
action. I'm glad that support
for you is in process. I suspect
that even if a particular scenario
stalls out, you'll continue to lean
into the direction that will get it
back on track.

I'm truly sorry that you had
such awful things happen.
I understand how you might
feel intense anger at men
in general. But please try
not to label everyone
of a particular gender
based on the dysfunction
of specific people.
My deceased father wasn't
perfect, but he was the
definition of a gentle man.
There are abusive men who
totally suck and there are sweet
men who are thoroughly wonderful.
Some of the second kind are
members of this community
who contribute to threads on
this forum.
(I read your profile and
it looks like you found
one of the great ones.
I'm happy for that!)
It's easy to feel anger
in general when we're
hurting so intensely.
Please take good
care of yourself.
Sending you hugs
and prayers for
healing and
happiness.
