      Thank you! I’m actually having the hardest week! Its a (detail removed by Moderator) and we’re spending the week together and yet my husband can spend 5 minutes in my presence so he’s out a lot or going with me to family so we are together alone and when we even on a day trip to the (detail removed by Moderator) he ran ahead and wouldn’t walk together with me- we have a son so he was able to do so in a way that didn’t look strange only I knew. plus a (detail removed by Moderator) hour trip home in which we didn’t talk much except he bashed me for a few minutes at the beginning of the ride.

      Wondering if you have an option to leave the home? You are not forced to stay n such a toxic environment.

      I can so relate! After a childhood of terror and fear its almost impossible to be able to parent the next generation. Are you still married and do you still have contact with your kids?
      I am going for therapy and one of my goals is to get my mom out of my head and another is to give my children to opposite of what I got!
      Are you getting any help?

      Hi
      thank you for taking the time to respond to me!
      The issues we have are religious and personality related.
      we are very religious but I am less so then my husband. Problem is that in my community religion is a key factor in our lives. Therefor although my husband is forcing me to act and dress and do specific things with out compromising on anything to the point where I am emotionally choking and doing so in a domineering and controlling way he comes across the more righteous of us because he’s following our religion to the extreme. I just started therapy and I have our religious leader involved too. I am here for support and to have a safe place to share my pain. I am not concerned that my husband will find me here since he doesn’t use the internet as this is something our religion doesn’t allow. Just pointing in here that my religion is not a cult and its one of the mainstream ones just that I’m not identifying it.
