Also, prolonged trauma from this issue and trauma from other abandonments (two that were fairly recent and significant) has not helped the anxiety attacks. |
What I see you doing is backing down from your stance. Perhaps you do contribute to the problem, but you labeled what you experience as emotional and sexual abuse. How can you back down from that statement and now color it differently as though you're at fault and it's your own issues? I think you're trying to avoid the truth of the matter to maybe lessen the blow of staying. Someone does not use the word abuse unless it's applicable.
