      The algorithm sometimes knows what I need better than myself?
      I went from a physically abusive relationship (2013-2017) to one with a person with NPD (2017-2020), with verbal bashings and belittling, sexual coercion and gaslighting..when I’d go see my friends? He would constantly txt and try to keep my attention on HIM…I thought back then? How cute! Looking back now? I know that’s a red flag.
      For me? Having experienced both? Leaving the physical was so much easier mentally..the narcissist? Ugh I married him…I thought ? It was his alcoholism and if he stopped drinking he’d be the man I fell for? Wrong again…
      I was a woman with a disability…and whom had just found out she had a neuroendocrine tumor …it was removed and I didn’t need anything else…but I had no one other than him…idk where the two friends I had went to?
      But what you said at the beginning? Dont wait to leave and if you’re alone like me? Reach out to your local DV group!!
      I left mine two years ago me and a Uhaul with two screaming cats…I was happy the first six months and felt hope but he’s done things he knows I will see…and see I have..my health now isn’t the best.
      Everything you said I feel…I’m tired feeling small..I still don’t feel joy yet? I’ve had therapy but once I left I just kinda shut myself in my apt thinking if I did back to back abusive ships? I need to just be alone? But I’m scared of that too. I want to feel my joy again…everyday I try to…
      Thank you for sharing your story…

      I’ll be 50 this year and have spent the last few years getting to truly know and understand myself. Others may be wrong, but I can only change myself. It’s a long hard journey, literally changing the way I move and interact with those around me on the daily. But it can be done. If you need to reach out to someone a bit older and wiser for some guidance pls let me know darlin.

      Please, justice system doesn't do anything to protect us or our children during or after. It's a pay to win branch of government. All these men need is a decent lawyer and even extreme cases can get off with a decade of probation and still access to the kids.. only to hurt the kids in the exact same ways later. Going back is just choosing the familiar trauma vs. all the new ones of poverty, injustice, judgment, and powerlessness. Protective orders don't block them from breaking down your door whenever they please.

If you're afraid like I was , it's a horrible situation to be in ... God bless you sweetheart, keep you so safe.. don't let him get away with it.. that was the only way he left me alone.

    When I was a young nurse I had a patient who was beaten by her husband with a tire iron. She barely survived and wasn’t recognizable as even human. It was so bad. Her children ran crying from the room calling her a monster. He ran from the police. He wasn’t finished. He came to the hospital that night to finish her off. We were notified and hid her and he was arrested. I’ve never forgotten her and think about her often and that was 20 years ago. My point is they don’t change. She told me she left many times but returned. You’re not alone. Be aware and be safe. Protect yourself. You will thrive!

You are incredibly vulnerable right now and will be for a long time. Be mindful of this and don't make any rash decisions. Aim for balance in every way possible. Eat (it helps your brain), sleep, exercise, time with safe people, time to reflect. You can get through the trial. You will take all of this a day at a time, or a minute at a time if you have to.

    Makeup can be armor. Seriously. Even during WWII women used red lipstick as a sign of liberty/victory and to feel good even in difficult times. Ancient female warriors painted their faces. Through my divorce I made myself put on makeup even if I couldn't muster anything else because once I got that done I usually felt better and could do more. It was also my way of showing myself and others that I would not be defeated. My mother and grandmother Always wore lipstick, even when going through things. I remember my mother crying in the car, then wiping her eyes. Grabbing her Revlon lipstick, and watching her put it on inthe car mirror and then her seeing little me watching and she smiled at me. It was what I now realize was her brave face.

    I was in a toxic, narcassistic relationship for 20 years. It started amazing. Things took a turn once I had my oldest and went through post pardum. It's like he took advantage of my brain not functioning properly and he wrecked me. I kept trying to push through and advance myself, but had more kids in a stupor. Towards the end, he was the worst he's ever been with me. He had choked me, raped me regularly, squeezed me, held me down, verbally abusive, financially abusive, emotionally abusive, and then it turned to verbal abuse and intimidation towards the kids. I knew I needed to get out. I took all the steps and I'm 5 months out.

    They say getting out is the hardest part but those of us who have successfully survived knows that every part is hard, including some you don't even think of. My first abuser was physical my second abuser was mental emotional and financial and I told myself because he wasn't hitting me it wasn't abuse. I honestly think my second abuser cherry picked me based on what I had been through, he always said all the right things in the beginning. I don't know if you have a victims advocacy group where you are but in New Jersey they were able to put me in touch with the right people & hold my hand through the entire process including court appearances.

    Don’t beat yourself up. I went from one to another, before I started to recognize what and why I was doing it. I grew up in domestic violence, so for me I was doing what felt normal. You will survive this. You will come out different, but you will come out of it. You are not alone.

    I know it is emotionally hard now, but I always choose to look at the bright side. I see a strong woman who could get rid of an abusive relationship. Darling, look at the mirror, and finally realise you're FREE now. The worst is gone! Now, the path is open for YOU to CHOOSE the way to go. YOU'RE FINALLY CHOOSING, not someone else. FEEL THE FREEDOM. ENJOY THE FREEDOM. Right now, you have the control again. You're not controlled anymore. You're a winner, a warrior, and I bet a lot of good stuff is on your way. I'm sending you prayer and lots of good vibes.

    there is not a man in the world worth going through the pain we go through when things go south/truth comes out. I spent my entire life thinking I needed a man in it, 5 husbands, 3 were absolutely dismal choices and now I’ve been single for 5 years, nothing, nada, none, and I’ve never been more at peace. I have always lost myself in relationships. The only men worth my time are my three sons, oh and my dog Charlie. My dad used to tell me “this too shall pass.” I’d glare at him and say ya right. But he was right. At some point you find your peace, your spot in this journey. Don’t be too hard on yourself. All the bad that happens, teaches us so many lessons!💖🥰

    • @SpaCityGirl
      @SpaCityGirl 6 місяців тому +1

      I hope your three son’s are kind and respect women. That’s what we need in this world, is for son’s to be raised to value women, respect them, and treat them as their equal. So many men think women are property, and they can treat them however they want. This comment thread is heartbreaking! The amount of women who have been in abusive relationships *JUST ON THIS SINGLE VIDEO* is insane!
      I just wish mom’s of son’s would do better.

  • @leslie_rish
    @leslie_rish 6 місяців тому +4

    I'm an abusive survivor as well and thankful to hear you got out! I went through a few abusive relationships in my teens and early 20s. The scariest one escalated days after I got out of the hospital after having surgery. It seems like this is something abusers do - something in your life is challenging, whether it's work, health or family, and instead of being supportive they get more selfish and ramp up the control and abuse. I got lucky and got out just in time with the help of the police. Hang in there, you got this! The healing process takes time. Surround yourself with a few trusted people and give yourself some grace. And for others watching and reading this and you're in the same situation, please reach out for help. I know it's embarrassing and scary but I promise your family and friends want you out of it and safe, that's all that matters.

    Don’t ever let some Di** Hea* with a fake heart steal yours. Try to put a protective cover in your mind and true spirit of who YOU are. Sometimes it can happen 2 or 3 times in a row. It takes time with creeps in disguise to rear their ugly side. So sorry that happened to you! ❤️I have 3 older sisters and girlfriends whom I’ve seen some real bs. They had to go through. Stay tough. You are worth it!!

    Aww lovely, I'm so sorry for what you are going through, I suffered domestic abuse from the age of 17 until 35, three relationships one after the other, then I met my lovely husband, we started off as friends first and I really got to know him for about 7 months before we got together properly, he was a wonderful kind careing man and we had 20 wonderful years together until cancer took him from me, I feel quite lost and lonely now but I have my little dog and my two boys so I'm just taking things one day at a time, that's what you need to do, just take things one day at a time and focus on your wellbeing, things will get better, your a beautiful person inside and out and I love watching your videos ❤

    I'm so sorry that you are going thru this. Know that you are strong and will overcome this. My co-worker and I were discussing our past abusive relationships a couple of days ago. The funny thing is, at the time I was in that relationship, I didn't realise that I was being abused. He would say and do things that would make me think, "What is wrong with you?" Then one day he showed up at my dorm room demanding that I pack my things and leave with him. He followed me to class, getting angrier and angrier. I looked at him and realised that if there weren't people in that classroom with me, he would have ended me. You are going to survive. You are going to thrive. You will rise like a Phoenix. Bless you.

I had a son from that relationship, but I have been married for 15 years to the best man I have ever known, an amazing person, partner, he is a real father to that son I had from before, and we have another kid together as well. Never give up on yourself. Reach out. Ask for help. You’re worth it. ❤
