Needing someone to talk to

I was in an abusive relationship for 7 years and had two kids with the person. I was actually pregnant with my youngest when I left and my oldest was 6. He was just mentally abusive at first the it became physically abusive. When I left I was about 16 or 17 weeks pregnant and had a black eye and a broken nose. I have been out of this situation for 5 years now but sometimes I feel like I just need to have someone to talk to that understands kinda what I went through or has some kind of idea what it’s feels like. Most people in my life have never been through anything like this so they don’t fully understand it all. Sorry for the long rant this has just been heavy on my mind for a while now.

Show your support

Hey lovely, I’m really sorry that you had to go through all that. No one deserves that. I was in a similar situation - I was with bd for 4yrs - 2 kiddos under 2 and pregnant with 3 when it became physical. I left at the end of last year and it’s still dragging on. I’m more than happy if you want to reach out and vent or cry xx

I have been in counseling the last 4 almost 5 years now which has helped but it’s not the same as having someone to talk to that can relate to what I have been through. I use to have flashbacks to what happened but I don’t get those anymore. My counselor has also suggested that I find a support group or something where I can find others to talk to

I get it. When you do share people usually don’t have much reference in their own lives to understand the weight of that truama. It’s soul crushing. Feel free to message me if you need to vent <3

Well the guy I’m with now really doesn’t understand and some of the comments he makes really doesn’t help me at all and he doesn’t even understand why it upsets me

@Kim I’m so sorry :( unfortunately you can’t make someone understand you pain. I’m going through a similar thing right now with my family.
