      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.

      I never thought I would leave him. It took meeting someone else who quite literally saved me to get out of it. Yeah I was thinking about seeing a therapist/getting counselling. I feel like you’re right I need to open up and I don’t think
      I will ever feel better unless I do. I just feel almost embarrassed and ashamed that I let him do all those things to me for so long. Why didn’t I get away sooner? It feels like he is still controlling me now and he’s not even in my life anymore.
      Thank you for replying to me on here
