I just want someone to talk to my family have been fabulous and enabled me to leave a partner that abused me and our children for years but I think they do not understand how I feel now and I find it hard to talk to them as they think I have done the hard bit but that's just not true! I just need a friend. please help.

Welcome to PC! Have you tried posting in the abuse forum? You might find folks with similar problems there. You might also want to check with you local domestic violence shelter to see if they have a support group. Those ladies will really understand what you've been through.
Thanks for this!

Welcome (((((Joblessbum))))--in the front of any phone book is the National Hotline for Domestic Abuse.

It is also posted here on PC--these people are trained to speak to those of us who are going through the fear, hell of Domestic Abuse.

It is a 24 hour hotline. I found a great deal of help there. I have a Permanent Order Of Protection against my ex. Been there. You are stronger than you know

Lizardlady has spoken for me also. If you want to pm me, you are welcome to! hugs-theo
Thanks for this!

Welcome to PC. I'm glad you left your abusive partner, but I can understand you're still struggling. It is very hard coping after abuse. There are lots of supportive people here. Talk away if you want. I'm here to listen. if wanted.

Thankyou for your reply I have a protection order for both myself and my girls but he is due out of prison soon and this is causing me completely erratic feelings. For me and the girls to leave we gave up everything and ran in the middle of the night I have fought so hard to get just the simplest of things that we needed to survive and we r doing well on the outside.

Things r never that simple tho I closed my business to leaving many people without jobs on Xmas eve the girls worlds were turned upside down and they were taken away from everything they knew and I made us homeless! His last attack was so bad he almost killd me and also stole the life of the baby I was carrying which would he here in the next few weeks....I feel so guilty I hurt so many people with my stupidity
