      This hit me, oh my good. Im young but I recently just got out of an a abusive relationship that I was in for about a year. He has (removed by moderator), suffers from depression and anxiety but doesn’t know how to handle it because he doesn’t have the right support system. He’s fractured my nose, shin, ribcage, given me numerous concussions and even fractured (removed by moderator)after flinging me down so hard. It has affected my physical health dramatically too. My health was already deteriorating before I met him because I was suffering from severe depression and anxiety and was not getting proper counselling. I have breathing problems after being punched in the chest and having a a fractured nose, I’ve had problems with my walking and balance because of my shin. I have headaches and ear problems too its all very crazy. I even had a miscarriage and lost my baby because of the stress and continuous smoking I was doing. I lived with him and was isolated because of the emotional manipulation that I was suffering but now I am back home. However, I am suffering from a severe case of PTSD, being scared to leave my house and worried hes going to hurt me or someone i love. I’ve been having graphic nightmares, not sleeping or eating properly and its been messing with my physical health even more. I have researched and spoken to a lot of people so i hope the advice I’m about to give helps.

      1/ Counselling helps more than anyone realises. Go to NHS 111 online and they will help. because of the current pandemic, mental health patients suffering from, anxiety, depression, ptsd or anything are scheduled in to have calls with nurses and you are called within the next hour or two.

      2/ Forgive yourself for not protecting yourself. You probably feel like you did everything you could to make things better but all it did is make things worse. IT IS NOT YOUR FAULT. You are strong, and you are powerful. Believe in your strength. PRAY!! There is nothing greater than the love of God.

      3/ Seek different way to help your mind set. These are some things I have been doing: Meditation, breathing exercises, working out, constant checking with family and friends, making sure that I understand that there are people around me who love me and support me no matter what. YOU ARE NOT ALONE ANYMORE.

      If you ever need to talk feel free to message me, I know how are dealing with this is x
