Finally I am seeing "light"

[Sunshine]

I just want to say that I think the women on this site are amazing and our struggle is very real!

I have finally had enough and although I left some time ago and fought hard to keep my house (he abused me through lawyers to make me homeless) I now have reported him again for his abuse. It has been taken very serious now. He’s out on bail, I have had the marac meeting been done, have new security on my house and a panick alarm to carry about with me. A (detail removed by Moderator) order was given free to me today. Assess to my daughter has been stopped and I finally feel that after (detail removed by Moderator) of abuse I will be able to live my life like any women should be able too.
I just want to say that yes it takes time and when you are ready you will have enough, stay strong and try and focus I have been through hell but when the abuse then started to threaten to kill me, do me in, through acid at me, permanently disfigure me I knew enough was enough! The abuse escalated and I knew I needed serious help! I know feel the most settled I can possibly be. I wish I had the strength to do it sooner but I always always didn’t want to make his life worse, I always felt guilty and put him before my needs every time. Not anymore x*x

Hi Sunshine,

You are so brave for reporting him. Like you said it can take a long time but the most important thing is safety and being free of abuse.

After what you have endured you are still here and that is amazing.

Best Wishes

Lisa
