I know that I should feel proud that I made it through the lawyer appointment, but for some un___ly reason I don't. I think I'm doing the right thing by pressing charges, I just don't know more. I don't know if he still has power over my thoughts or it is just wrong to do that (he kept me against my will and abused me for three months and the cops came and got me). I don't know what to think. My mind is very clouded. It's hard for me to stay on subject. Am I doing the right thing? Or am I just being hard on myself? I have no clue anymore.

I'm not entirely sure what your situation is, but I can say without a doubt that it takes a lot of strength and courage to even think about pressing charges against an abuser, so I believe absolutely you have every right to feel proud of yourself !
Take good care of yourself, Jinsi

Holy cow! You are brave! You have to press charges on him. I am a guy and I cannot even pretend to know what you went through with all that. All I know is, if I knew this sorry S.O.B. he would have hell to pay. For all he has taken from you, I dont think they could do enough to scum like that. Don't second guess if your doing the right thing, because you are. If you are feeling so down on yourself that you don't feel you deserve justice, think about the next poor girl who might have to go through that ordeal. It will happen again, sick people like that can't stop. Put him away, not only for you own piece of mind, but for anyone else he may assult. I hope you are finding a small amount of solace here on this board. It is full of nice, caring people who will help you through the tough times. Stay strong and know you are making the world a better place by getting this cretin off the streets.

IndianaGeek My heart raced when I saw your name. That is where he is living right now. I don't feel as though I could do this for myself. You mentioned that I just have to think about what I went through and the fact that someone could go through what I did just furiates me. I wouldn't wish this on my worse enemy

Yeah, I could see that. Although when I see a name like mine, I think more of an Omish Jeb, headed to a barn raising. At the very least someone in overalls working on a John Deer =P

Taking legal action against an abuser must be incredibly hard, overwhelming, stressing.
We owe it to ourselves to try and bear up and make sure that our abusers cannot continue to hurt people. You are doing the right thing and I think I understand how you might be confused and question whether you are or not. I hope you find the support you need to get through this very trying process. |

Thank you for taking the time to respond to my post. Due to my illness it is very hard for me to see the way most of you do. I am trying to work through it and this is the first step.
