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.
I was abused by my sister when I was 12/13, something which I had put in the back of my mind, because at that time I didnt know it was wrong, although there had to be a reason why I didnt like women to hug me and get close, I only found out about that when I was 50 and I am 58 now and have come to terms with it and can talk about it, also I was married to a very abuse man who subjected me to physical, mental and emotional abuse and rape and yet again I have bounced back and now am a Life Coach and a online Mentor and help others in the same situation because I can relate.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
