      Hello I’m new and I want to say to every woman out there that is being
      Abused,to get out of the relationship,I left my partner who was controlling,I thought I was going mad,i got to the point I wanted to kill myself but my children who are grown up,made me want to live,nobody knew he was mentally abusing me,I was a good actress put it that way. He was very controlling,jealous,he would not let me go out have friends,could not do anything on my own! he would go through my phone,he didn’t trust me he said,he isolated me from the world,I wasn’t living but exsisting.we were both retired but everywhere I was he was there with me,I had no space and time to myself.I asked myself this is not right so I had the chance on new years day to leave,and take my advice ladies don’t look back on what you could of done,or make the situation better but look forward to a world of freedom and happiness.ABUSERS DON’T CHANGE,THEY ONLY MOVE ON TO THERE NEXT VICTIM

      Hi FREE2020,

      Brilliant news about you leaving your abuser and getting your freedom, the ladies on here have been great supporting me along my harrowing journey of abuse..
      Your situation sounded just like mine is.. and I’m hopefully just gotten to the end and freedom is in sight..saying that, panic and guilt setting in, but I’ve felt those feelings before in trying to flee, but always came back..
      But this time is different, I’ve found a home.. and it felt like home when I saw it too..
      Your freedom and what you’ve just said give me that extra strength in leaving
      Sending hugs
      X*x

      Hello FREE 2020

      Well done babe I’m hoping to be in your situation soon although I’m still stuck and blaming myself.

      I am very happy for you 🤗
