      Hi Essexgirl,welcome to the forum. It’s a big step you’ve taken by posting, take your time, keep reading others posts and getting as much info as you need to make any future decisions. Post what you want when you want. It’s a safe place to vent, to share. No one will judge or make you do anything you don’t want to.
      Best wishes IWMB 💞💞

      Good morning Essexgirl, welcome to the forum. As IWMB has said it takes a lot of strength to post and to start to share you experiences.

      You could also get some support from your local domestic abuse service you can find their details here

      Hi Essex girl 😊

      Well done for getting out and for reaching out on here. It takes a lot of strength 💕.

      This bit is tough – healing takes time and is painful. It’s so unfair that we have to cope with all the abuse and then we have to cope with the fallout from it too.

      Get as much support as you can, WA, your GP, other charities, this forum and friends and family.

      Try to keep your head occupied – I read ALOT!

      And be super kind to yourself.

      I’m often lonely but then I think about how lonely I felt in the relationship and all the things I no longer have to worry about.

      Love and hugs xxxx

      Hi Newbie, no it’s definitely not your fault though they’d have you believe it or that you’re at least partially responsible. How are you doing this week. It’s pretty hard going but the longer you have little or no contact the better all round it is for your mental and physical health. Keep posting and reading others posts

      I am very frustrated he was arrested today for breaking a restraining order but said I was lying and he was released due to lack of evidence I feel like he is just laughing and trying to make everyone believe it is me that is crazy x
