I will take as long as I need to to get through this and to process my emotions, and no one should be judging that. No one. It can take years to get over and heal from an abusive marriage.

Considering all that I’ve been through, I think I’m holding up pretty darned well and am getting through it as best as I possibly can considering that I also lost my job and am dealing with all the stress that involves too.

And I am proud of myself for calling him out on his bs. I think I should be applauded for not letting him get away with it - I’m patting myself on the back at least and I’m proud of myself. And that’s all that matters.

I have every right to be angry and I am doing a lot of self care. However long it takes me to get past the anger is my business and no one else’s. It’s healthy I think to allow oneself to work through it. And that can be a slow process. Who are you to judge that process?
I apologize for offending you. I didn't intend that with my suggestion. You are absolutly correct that getting past anger can take years. I'm personally on year 9 and wish now I had started 12 years ago dealing with it.
