      I’m starting to regret ever opening my mouth about the emotional abuse over the years. I can see the toll its taking on my parents who are so worried about me and the kids. They are not young anymore and I just feel ive added so much worry to their lives. They should be enjoying their later years and enjoying g the grandkids without this. No light at the end of the tunnel. Sorry don’t really expect advice just having a self pity moment. Maybe the morning will be brighter.

      I can see the toll its taken on my parents, i hadnt intended on telling them but things happened and they knew there was more than i had told them. Since finding out the both haven’t been very well and im sure it has made them worse. They are hoping to do things in the future with the family and im hoping planning and doing stuff will help everyone concentrate on building new memories. Im hoping for a better future than past and thats what is keeping me going. Sending hugs hope your having a better day x

      Some days all i want to do is cry. Since not being with him he seemed to take it out on my eldest. Stepping out of the relationship i can see the control he had. We have to give ourselves time, sometimes i believe if i had been better things would have been different. There are still things to sort out but im hoping i have the strength to get through it.
