      @nbumblebee,I am sooo, soo proud of you. Every small step matters and I know most of the times it seems so hard to see a light at the end of the tunnel.
      I know how it’s like to feel stuck and to dream of getting away but feeling it as impossible and never happening.
      But there is hope and, sometimes, hope can come from unexpected places and unexpected people.
      I wish for you to realise how strong you can be and how much potential is inside of you. It seems also impossible too and really hard, I know, but it’s there.
      I am with you, sister, you’re not alone.

      Love and hugs xx

      @Searchingforhope, many thanks for sharing with me.
      You are right, the instinct is telling us the truth,it’s just that sometimes we want either try making things right or we tend not to listen to it because we’re too ever powered by what’s happening.
      I am glad you found the strength of writing them here and I want to share with you what an acquaintance said at some point: there is no one that can be more powerful in this world than a mom.

      Lots of love.

      @AllAdrift, many thanks for sharing with me.
      Just like you, I thought they were small things and tended to ignore them until they kept piling on and led to overburn, unhappiness, depression and anxiety.
      It takes a while to figure out and to actually see the reality of what’s happening, so I’m really, really glad you got there.
      Also, I’m really glad you had the strength to finish it.

      Lots of love.

      @nbumblebee, stop putting yourself down and start thinking of yourself.
      I am sure you have your reasons for staying, but start prioritising yourself and think: is this the life you want to have? Do you feel good in this relationship? When was the last time you laughed and enjoyed life?
      It is only up to you.

      Lots of love.

      @Bananaboat,thanks for sharing with me.
      I know it’s a lot, but it takes strength to admit it and take the steps towards recovery. It may not seem, at first, but it really is.
      Seeing the signs and sharing them will definitely be of help, so continue sharing your experiences and red flags.
      Also, I know as I see it in myself, that some of us continue blaming ourselves for staying but, please, don’t do that, we are not the issue.
      I recognize also, through what you wrote, typical behaviour, such as the women are below men, therefore they deserve degrading behavior. Wrong!
      I recognize playing the victim and belittling and, indeed, you are right, there is so much more.
      Once again, I really appreciate it you sharing. Keep doing this as a form of self therapy but also to help the other sisters. I will do the same.

      Lots of love.

      Good morning sisters,


      @Ariadne
      , @Greyrock – many thanks for your advice, it’s all very appreciate it. Since I was on fight and flight mode, my mind has been clouded and now I’m trying to figure out steps towards recovery.
      I will take up to anything that can help in this situation and I very grateful to have you all sharing with me your road and your ways.
      I will stick around, this is so helpful, knowing I can reach out and find strong women with similar experiences.
      Lots of love.

      Thanks
