I was travelling home today from work on the bus and there was a very young child who was very distressed. Crying, obviously tired but saying over and over where’s my daddy? So I’m confined on the bus and can’t get away from this and I seriously had a full blown trigger. I thought I was going to have a panic attack and had to get of the bus. I remember only vaguely when I put my ex out of the house, all done in a caotic fashion ie police came escorted him out, my dad had to nail down the windows he was still trying to get in! My youngest was only just talking and for months she was saying this repeatedly, where’s daddy. I think this triggered heart breaking times fir me today, not at the loss of him but at the loss of any hope for a not a family unit xx😩

How awful for you. Yes it sounds like a trigger. Who wouldn’t be. There is no such thing as a normal family unit. Families come in all shapes sizes and genders. One mum, two mums, two dads etc. A family is a loving unit. Even if it’s just the two of you. It’s so much better for you both. You will be a far better parent for her than having someone who scares her and teaches her dysfunction.hang in there, do something nice for yourself. Sending a 🤗 hug. It gets better x

Hi and thank you all for your support, it was a bit of a rubbish day yesterday but today is another day and im fine 🙂 My daughter is doing really well now yes. This experience has shown her that you don’t have to tolerate abusive behaviour of any kind. She knows to surround herself with people who make her feel good about herself. I have learned that it is easier to build strong children than to repair brocken men! I think yesterday brought back really deep memories. Maybe we need to face the worst of this until we can start repairing ourselves. Who knows but one things for sure we have the strength to do it and the resilience 🙂 xx DIY
