I'm dealing with accepting that my violent abusers will suffer no consequences for what they did to me. It's really hard. They are sitting pretty with well-paid jobs and prestigious titles while, because of them, I'm now disabled with complex PTSD and am living in a community for people with mental illness and can only handle a part-time, minimum wage job (although I do like the job). It's hard enough to deal with what they did to me, but I also have to deal with the fact that they got away with it--and what they did was abuse at the criminal level, felony level.

Most abusers get away with it, even criminal ones, because it can be so hard to prove what they did. How have others here dealt with this reality. I'm really struggling right now.

Thanks, Ceara
