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.
If it's any consolation, the longer you have no contact the better you will feel. I'm still working on my own healing and just want to say be gentle with yourself, give yourself plenty of time and find a really good therapist.

You've done what many of us have, take them back for whatever reason, hoping for the best, and it's so disappointing when that isn't the outcome.
It was a mistake, you realize it...try your best to brush yourself off and be very, very kind to yourself from here on out, part of which is enforcing strict NC.
(hugs)
You deserve better!!!
