Peaceful Pig
ParticipantA few Christmas’ ago a friend said to me that I’d still be talking about leaving when the next Christmas came around. I made a firm decision then (finally) that I would not spend another year with him. I was out within(detail removed by moderator) of that decision.
Fast forward to now and I can enjoy the best Christmas I ever have and have and the most wonderful presents I could wish for:
Safety
Freedom
Happy times with my beautiful children
Myself
Sanity
And a divorce!I just wanted to give the gift of hope to any of you not quite free yet, all this will come your way in time x*x

ParticipantThank you. Gives me hope. I’m sick of his games. Takes me to court then delays things and messes about. Idiot. 2017 will be the year I correct a mistake I made many years ago ๐

strong soul
ParticipantA positive message for all the women in this support group. It’s a rocky road of recovery, but eventually you see the light at the end of the tunnel. It’s not easy breaking the bonds of domestic abuse, but the rewards are worth it. To live with an abusive partner means that you are actually stronger than you think. Think how powerful you can be living a life without fear. X*X

Lightness
ParticipantI agree – inspiration and helpful perspective. Thanks for posting Peaceful Pig. It is very positive to hear there is light at the end of the tunnel. It’s not an easy time of year, but looking back I see how far I have come. Merry Christmas ladies.
A little Christmas ditty, based on away in a manger:
Away from the danger
Away from the danger, no more in my bed
But still the abuser is inside my head
The stars in the heavens look down where i lay
I count those lucky stars that I got awayAbused by his harsh words, abused by his stare
Abused by his absence and complete lack of care
I love thee my family, standing by me today
Without you, not the courage to have run awayStay near me my family, I ask thee to stay
Close by me forever, and love me, I pray
Bless all the dear children and women I know
Still with their abusers not yet able to go -
