I have made my mental health worse

I have told my choir friends about emotional abuse from husband and broke down in cafe. They are expecting me to leave.

Hi,

Thank you for your post and welcome to the forum. I’m sorry to hear about your situation. That must have taken you a lot of courage to disclose that to them. Just sharing can be the first step and its completely up to you where you go from here.

You may want to contact your local domestic abuse service with whatever you decide to do next. They can provide you with ongoing support if you feel you need it right now.

Best Wishes

Lisa

I have been in my relationship for years and years and have never told anyone anything until recently.

I think I hid everything because I didn’t want people to know. If they knew they wouldn’t understand why I was still here – why I wouldn’t just get up and leave but it’s not that easy, is it?

I have told a few people things that have been happening – and I believe that’s because mentally I’m getting ready to leave. I know my mind is still confused and most of the time I want to just forgive him – forgive and forget! But I also know that part of me wants to leave.

I think getting in touch with your local domestic abuse charity is a good idea – or talking to someone online.
