Thank you! I never thought I would have a “normal” relationship and I really don’t want to loose this one. My new boyfriend tries so hard to understand and help me but I’m worried that if I open up to much and go into detail with him of what my ex did he will do something silly to him. You are right I need to talk to someone and get it all out. I try to push it all to the back of my mind but I overthink about it all the time. I’ve even been having nightmares that I’m still in the abusive relationship and when I wake up I feel like I can’t breathe until I realise he is not in bed next to me. Thank you for listening to me I’ve never really spoken to anyone properly about this.
