Trying to piece together all that's happened and it's too much. I feel like it's not real like this is all some crazy dream I'm gonna wake up from. Only I am awake. The abuse never stops. I've left my abusive husband but we have a child together so he keeps on getting to abuse me and now her. She comes home with all kinds of bad things he's said about me, and I'm helpless to stop it. He will abuse her and it will hurt her as she grows up and I can't stop it. Only I can somehow counteract it with good words. I also have parents who put me down all the time. Never highlight my strengths. Just constantly put me down. Like I'm a failure as a human being. It's been this way since I was a little girl. Now I'm slowly figuring all this out and it's too much I cant understand why someone especially parents can do this. And it's only to me so they are aware of it. It's like they hate me and want to make me pay someway. Did they not want to have me? I just can't wrap my head around this. I was isolated from family cause they would speak bad about me. I had no friends cause my ex wouldn't allow it . Please I need some support

It sounds like a very bad situation. I'm sorry that you feel helpless in this situation. Are you seeing a therapist? I would highly recommend it if you are not. I would also get your daughter in to therapy too.

A therapist can help you work through this and help you take measures to put a stop to the abuse.

If you can't afford a therapist, try a local mental health association, or an organization like Catholic Charities, the provide low or no-fee assistance.

welcome to Psych Central.

Please look into to ways to get help. A therapist, or like Reb said, a charitable organization, There are also support groups for survivors of abuse that are free. They can be very helpful.

you deserve to get the help you need. Maybe you could "figure it out" youself. But why do things the hard way?
