Hi Homeira, I'm
sorry I'm slow on typing!!
I'm
so sorry you've had to go through all of that, but it's
not anything wrong with you, it's
not your fault!!!! The fault is
completely,
1001% with the person/people who did those things to you.
And living in an abusive marriage isn't necessarily any sort of a "choice".........the abuser can so easily break down your recognition that you actually
do have a choice/you do deserve
more, you can be "blinded" by the abuse and the way it/they are making you feel.
So glad that you are away from it now!! I know it still has to be really hard for you in so many ways but now you're here, now you're talking about things, and now you can start on the journey towards overcoming this/and the things that have happened to you. I
know it won't be/isn't easy, but............
