am i crazy?

ok, new here. first time ever posting anything anywhere, so bear with me. i feel like i have been living in an emotionally (and possibly sexually) abusive relationship. he says it's all me. i've done research on the internet, and run into stuff that's like: "yes, ok, that IS happening". but then things get turned around on me, and he uses ME as the example. it's hard to laundry-list all this junk and not BORE someone to death..... I'd like to start a chat and get some feedback in real time. thanks. ~ jen

In my opinion the answer is no, as you are asking that question!!

sorry im just seeing your post. but feel free to post more or pm me. I'm sorry you are in an abusive relationship. I hope you find the help you need.

Gee justjen, your post sounds VERY familiar to me. I was told so many times that I was wrong for feeling the way I was feeling, that it was ME that was the problme, even told that I was "crazy".

That hurts and it's confusing. I finally went to counseling(due to severe major depression) and started to learn how it all fit together and that it takes TWO people for a relationship to struggle/run into obstacles-- NOT just one person.

If you're not in counseling yet, maybe doing so could help.

And sharing things here helps too, and also for me-- just reading others experiences and how they have coped has given me some insight too.

wishing you the best,
