I’m glad speaking up has helped you feel better. Most of the abusers in my life simply ignore me and continue with the abusive behaviour if I speak up
I think that’s the mark of an abuser. They continue despite a clear request to stop.
. I wish I’d known that years ago, I might not be so ****ed up and wishing I was dead
sorry about the triggering post. It’s been a horrible day.
