Things to ponder- It's still abuse if someone is emotionally or mentally abusing you. How long can you continue going through the motions? If you have children together there is the potential for the pattern of abuse to follow them. Do me a favor, write a list of all the reasons you should stay and why you shouldn't. List past incidents of anytime you felt unsafe, made to feel small, or defeated. This list can serve to be a reminder of why you stay or need to leave. You my Friend are important, loved, and worthy of a normal life! You are not alone even though it feels that way. If you need to talk, or if you have questions I am happy to hold space for you. Message me privately. Stay safe and God bless!
Someone out there needs to know they are not alone and that they can survive. Perhaps you are a parent or friend of someone trapped in an abusive relationship and need to know how to help. My goal is to share awareness, offer empowerment, and educate others about emotional traumas and domestic abuse. Here I will share my story and also stories of courage and healing from Survivors, Coaches, to Therapists/Counselors.
