Abuse shows up in many forms Verbal, Sexual, Physical, and/or Neglect. All of which leave emotional scars. If you are being abused there is help. There are people to support you. I am eternally grateful for those who helped me get out. My ex-husband would tell me he would "Kill Me" if I told anyone. So I would lie thinking it was keeping me SAFE. I am grateful that at a Superbowl party in 1998 3 f
riends saw through the lies and started me on the journey of getting out. One of my friends arranged with my ex to come to our home with my younger sister and make us dinner. The morning of the dinner my ex beat me up and raped me but at dinner he acted very loving and caring. The next day my co-worker called my dad and told him he needed to come get me. He followed me to my home and we packed up as much as my stuff that could fit in our 2 vehicles and I went to stay with my parents. Unfortunately being the first one to go through anything like this in my family, it was not talked about (or at least not with me). To this day, my parents and siblings don't know what really happened me . So now 16 years later I am working on healing. Don't go through it ALONE there are people to help. I have also been dealing with chemical imbalance and depression. I want to help others on their journey.
