It gets better :)

It’s been a while since I last posted, but this page has helped me so much and maybe my story will give some hope to someone who needs it.

I left my abuser (detail removed by moderator) and he followed up on his threat. He kidnapped our child and took her abroad. My whole world collapsed and I thought I will never survive. But I had to find strength to fight and get her back. I didn’t see her for a few months and those months were the darkest time of my life. I cannot put to words how I felt. But in the end I got her back!

When I left and in the months after I was a shell of human being. I wasn’t able to go to work so I lost my job. All I could see was darkness. I couldn’t see myself ever feeling different But slowly things started improving. I started therapy, I found an amazing DV counsellor, a few months later I got an great job and I met some new wonderful friends. I started going out on the days when my daughter was with him. I even started travelling again! I can feel myself becoming stronger with each passing day. I feel joy again! And when I am in my bed in the evening I am forever grateful that I get to come home every day to a household where I feel no fear, just peace. I have a beautiful relationship with my daughter and our bond is stronger than ever.

There are still days when he manages to get to me (detail removed by moderator) but even my darkest moments now are nothing in comparison to the horror of my life with him. I am free and he cannot take that away from me.

So if you are struggling, just know that there is light in the other side. There is freedom, there is joy and laughter and a new appreciation for life without abuse. Keep fighting, keep going, you got this! ❤
