Its been over 4 years since the abusive relationship that last 2 years but i still cant get over it! now waiting to getting counselling but it is taking so long!

I just really want to put it behind me!

Completely get over it instead of supressing it.

I am struggling with this as well. I never went for counselling because I didn't feel like a had enough reasons too, and everyone said it will get better with time. But I still have all these negative ideas and thoughts about myself, and still am triggered all the time by things in my new relationship. It has been over 3 years since I left, and I have been in a new relationship for 1.5 years. Time doesn't seem to be helping like everyone said it would. It doesn't just go away.

I don't know, for me "realising" that the negative things they taught me weren't true and suddenly feeling better

His behaviour made me feel worthless and I am not worthless and I knew that was the truth and suddenly my heart healed a bit

I was in therapy at the time though

Perhaps research types of abuse and tactics of personality disorders, in un picking all that has been done to you maybe you will have an educational freedom

Learn how cbt works, basically to challenge negative thoughts with their solution

I wish you so much healing with this
