      For the last (timeframe removed by Moderator) years ive been married to someone who has controlled me, belittled me, treat me like a child. I have suffered immensely with my MH for half of the time as a result. I have finally been brave and left yet hes still playing the mind games, gaslighting me, saying he will agree to things in the divorce then changes his mind an hour later. He knows how I am and what tortures me mentally and hes still doing it. He had to have control of everything dangling the carrot then snatching it away. He made me and my children’s life a misery. We would always be walking on eggshells. I thought I was free but it feels like its never going to end. Honestly dont know how much more my head or i can take

      Hi Trooperdooper,

      I’m so sorry that he’s still managing to control and abuse after you’ve left. It’s very common, unfortunately, for abusers to behave in this way. You deserve peace and safety. Lots of women here who have left have been through similar, I hope that reading their posts about how things do get better helps.

      Take care and keep posting,
      Lisa
