      Hi just a bad day just feel so alone.been apart from my ex for years so i know i am better off than some of you and my heart goes out to you all. I am having counselling and been having it for ages.sometimes feel slightly better but other times re living it all just  is so hard.i have wasted so much of my life either being with him or dealing with the aftermath.i go through hell in a session then have to go to work like everything is fine even though my anxiety is through  the roof and then it hits me hard when i grt home.i am just emotionally drained.just feels like it will never end.sorry moaning just needed to sound off.

      Sending hugs and hopes that you feel better soon. Totally get what you mean about the feeling you’ve wasted so much time. I’m still in my relationship and every year that ticks past I keep thinking is lost in the same cycle of being unhappy.
      Do you have anyone that can support you outside of counselling?

      Thanks for your reply.sorry you are still going through it all if you can find a way and have the strength and means to leave it is worth it.it took me over (time frame removed by moderator) to leave  and it is very hard especially if they control the money etc. I am lucky to be away from my ex but he is still there in my head and the trauma leaves a lot of pain.i have made new friendships over the years as he stopped all my original friends  from coming round.i have family but i feel like most of them feel that i should be over it all by now as it’s been many years. I wish you well
