I have no one except my child. I am facing the reality that I’m probably going to be cut out because I won’t do what my Dad wants. It’s too triggering to be near them, the way he treats my mum, so controlling.
I’ve very little money, unemployed, find people triggering I’m so fragile. The evenings are so hard there’s nothing I want to watch on tv I end up just sitting in my situation just waiting to go to sleep.

Hi Saturn changing,
Life sounds tough for you at the moment, I’m sorry to hear that. As you learn more about domestic abuse and start to consider your path moving forwards it can feel overwhelming and scary. However perhaps you have a sense of the possibility of what life could be like away from the turmoil of this abusive environment. It is possible and there’s help available. Keep taking it a day at a time, reach out for support where you can and put your focus on you and your child’s wellbeing.
If you’d like some more support you could chat to a Women’s Aid worker in confidence via our Live Chat service (open 10am-6pm every day). They won’t tell you what to do, but can discuss your situation and signpost you to other support that’s relevant for you.
Keep posting, you’re not alone,
Lisa

Thank you for your response Lisa, I appreciate it especially as you must be very busy. It’s funny because now I feel more separate from it I notice when people are nice to me and it’s like actually I am deserving of being treated with respect and kindness. It is difficult when I was in it for so long. I will remember about the live chat, thank you.
My child brings me a lot of joy and so that is something I am grateful for. Have a good evening xx
