Thank you for your lovely replies. I never knew there were so many different avenues, I thought ringing the police could make it worse for myself. I have been in contact with the doctor, I am on anti depressants and have regular counselling. I feel so lost, my mum knows nothing and I make sure I put on a persona when she’s around, I couldn’t bring myself to speak to her about it as I feel like a failure and I’m embarrassed, one reason why I haven’t rang the helpline. I just deal with the words and being hit and carry on about my day thankfully I don’t have children so it’s just me involved even though he’s constantly telling me he would change if I got pregnant 🤔. Once again thank you ladies for your support and guidance, it’s nice to “speak” about it to people that understand. 💕💕
