Maybe if i stuck up for myself more and opened up earlier enough when i seen the red flags he would not of got away with his actions .. when he was sending me crazy .maybe i should of stuck up for myself and stabbed him!!. But iam not a violent person . But he did drive me to the point of crazyness .. things could have been a lot different. Then i would of had him in court .. oh well .. if he ever does come near me i will defend myself no matter what .. but hey ho i will dust him off and move on with my recovery

Hi Iamfree
You have done well not to attack back ! Dont stoop to his level as you are the better person by far.
Its hard to defend yourself when you are beaten down and vulnerable by abuse.Dont be so hard on yourself–you are a strong woman who has survived a traumatic life and trying to improve this gradually.Its a work in progress and you will come out of the darkness into the light.By being here its good to know we are not alone.

Don’t beat yourself up, I Am Free. You entered into the relationship with pure intentions, sbdcthese abusers are. Wet good at making us feel immobilised.
I sometimes feel guilty because I had kids with my ex. I should have chosen a man Ruth more integrity and morals- but we aren’t arrogant are we? We kind of think no ones perfect and we hope that our abusers will see the error of their ways – but it never happens. By the time they’ve inflicted the damage, they’ve weakened us in different ways.
Be proud that you never stopped to his level. acting crazy isn’t something to feel guilt about: it’s what happens when you’re abused. We’re not robots, and abusers try very hard to get a reaction from us.
Hugs X
