Starting Over

[Emeraldgreen]

That is a huge step and so brave. You are not only taking your future into your own hands but that of your children and even your pets. You are being an awesome parent and protecting them in the way that they deserve.
I can only imagine that it will be a bit scary but I hope that it will be less so than some of the abuse you have endured in the past.
You have my support too and I hope that you will find strength each day to carry on and that it will all fall into place for you. Take care.

You are very brave not only telling us this but working to get out of this situation. There is so much information out there on abuse than there ever was and it is much easier to understand how it begins and why it continues. Again it is very brave for you to get out and start over as scary as that is. You can always turn to us - none of us wants to see anyone continuing in an abusive situation and everyone needs a safe place to talk. I hope we all will allow that to be here for you and you will use it as such. You and your children will be in my thoughts and prayers. Diana
