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 know im about to leave but why do we always feel sick to the stomach and ill and so drained???

how can one let oneself become so consumed to make you feel so ill?

Once we bond with someone,
particularly if the bond includes
having been physical, the body
has released hormones and
made various physical connections
inside the brain, for the purpose of
ensuring that the bond continues.
That's why detaching from a relationship,
even when the relationship was destructive
to us, is so agonizing difficult, and why, as
you so poignantly describe, you feel so
consumed and so ill. It's NOT the you
"let" yourself. It's what the body does.
That's why we need to be so
very, VERY CAREFUl when
we're engaged in the process
of proceeding into relationship.
Sending you hugs and healing thoughts.
Please take good care of yourself.
I have been out a year. In this past year, none of my vacation days at work were used as sick days. In the past I was using them quite a bit because I just felt I couldn't function. This year I used them for court dates as well as fun days to spend with the kids. Not a one was health related.
I still get stressed and depressed, because he still knows how to push all my buttons. But NOT living with him, makes a HUGE difference in DEALING with him. I hope you soon find that out!
I hear you NewStart.
I've been so tired and drained lately. It's crazy! It's actually been days now--and I barely want to do anything. Not even the most basic stuff like go to sleep or watch a movie--I'm too tired to do that. What the?
I'm in my bathrobe at 1pm, so I hear ya. I haven't even brushed my hair.
I went through this psycho mental trip last night where I missed H so badly--it was absolutely nuts. And this morning I'm back to normal, but last night I felt like I was being torn apart....I DO NOT want to bond with someone like him again and have to go through this.
its hard work isnt it.....i think its just the trauma of it all xxx
thanks for the replies guys x x x
