I thought it was so accurate. When she first tried to walks away with her own umbrella and her head held high and then the wind blew her umbrella away.And the invisibility that she carries around because of the abuse. And then when the lady at the end offered her an umbrella and her world started to spin. That is me, right now. My world is spinning but I am going to take the help and walk away with my head held high. Thank you Refuge and Frances for this important video.

I cried and cried…
This took me right back to just before i escaped- i was in the shops & felt numb, invisible, like an actor playing her part. How could the world keep on moving on? How could people not see written as clear as day that i was in so much emotional agony? That there was a shadow waiting in my window for me to get home? That the alcohol I was buying was intended to get me drunk…
Still crying…

I saw the video too and thought it was great. I remember when I met my ex’s parents I had a strange out of body experience, like I was a ghost floating away and that my soul was fading, like the woman in the video. I felt so unhappy and like I was playing a role I shouldn’t be playing but at the time I didn’t understand why as it was before my epiphany that he was abusive. I hope it helps other women to get out of these terrible relationships.
