I spent 17 years married to what turned out to be a very mean man. Was physically isolated from all friends and family, and was made to feel that no one wanted me anyway (can you say emotional abuse?). Got out about 2-1/2 years ago, with the self-esteem of a gnat. Been working on it, but it took
a long time to get that low; recovery isn't gonna be fast.
Hell, I even made it through cancer last year.
When I'm like this, I just push people away. Don't want anyone to see me like this. Force of habit, I guess.
