ParticipantMadainn mhath (Good Morning). I have finally decided on my date of leaving. It has been popping into my head for about a week now. It will be a month after my enough is enough moment, ๐ I have been popping into the flat every day since I received the key, getting a feel for it., making freshly brewed coffeeโ I was thinking now I have the FREEDOM TO CHOOSE, anything I want, to say or buy, do or not do, without being berated for wasting money or being selfish or whatever๐ This is the first time @ftc I’ve used those words, and I get why you chose it as your user name.
Thank you ladies for sharing this journey with me, from watching me take baby steps ๐ฃ to being nearly ready to run ๐โโ๏ธ, which considering my joints, is amazing in itself. ๐๐
Almost there and enjoying the journey

ParticipantWow, Iโm so excited for you. Iโve followed your journey on here and you are a true inspiration. Not only to discover freedom for yourself but to have helped so many of us on your journey too. You have a real insight into domestic abuse and perhaps now you have the โfreedom to chooseโ, this new chapter might allow you to carry on and help others. To educate and raise awareness. As a survivor you have a louder voice than you know. Baby steps x

ParticipantThanks KIP, and you’ve been mine๐ I’ve so nearly started psychology courses in the past, think I may do it once I’m settled. I was trying to talk to my son, help him through his FOG, and my dad was like, how did you get so knowledgeable, don’t you think you should do this for a living! With practicing LOA anything IS possible. The possible opportunities created by going through what we have done, can open so many doors for us and help others like us or in similar circumstances. All we can do is educate the future generations. Knowledge is power(KIP) as they say ๐
Best wishes IWMB ๐๐ -

ParticipantThereโs an introduction to psychology and counselling course at my local college. Iโve thought of doing that first to see how much brain power I still have. There are also so many life coaches on YouTube and we know much more than them. Iโm still trying to work out my next move, I suppose Iโm still in recovery. You will have so much more time for yourself to decide what you want to do, that time can be overwhelming in the beginning as all your time and headspace will have been taken up by him so get some good things on your calendar, rekindle old friendship and spend more time on the people in your life who really matter.

ParticipantI’ve missed a few days logging in. Sort of hit the wall and had to do work, home, eat, bed to stave off the exhaustion, so I didn’t see that you’ve had the keys.
So pleased for you, that’s brilliant. I can’t wait to hear of how you’re enjoying being there in peace and making your own choices for you and your life.

ParticipantWhoop whoop! Let’s all dance! Gosh, your own gaff!!! It’s gonna be great – v happy for you.
Wish I’d chosen such a meaningful user name now, FTC is a great one for sure. My mind was blank and it was what I saw when I scanned the room along with dirty socks and pants – think I made the right choice lol x

It isn’t easy, but its worth it. Not being controlled and screamed at and hit has felt fantastic. And to have control of your own money….
I needed the forum so much when I got out, so keep posting.
See you on the other side ๐ x*x

ParticipantHey Landy, yes I will keep posting, was able to access internet in the flat even though there’s no internet in it, if that makes sense. The final countdown – actuslly love that song, need to look it out, though it’s probably packed. Will download it onto my phone.

ParticipantIt suddenly dawned on me yesterday as I was driving down to the flat, I’d always thought to myself I’d love to live in there. Obviously I can’t describe it, but where it is I pass every day, thought the place looked lovely. It was only yesterday, as I drove in from the top end of the town, that that thought crossed my mind.
LOA at work? You make up your minds, let me know what you thing ladies๐ Definately something ‘Higher’ at work.
