(((hugs))) what a brave and strong person you are.
when i started to let go of my past abused i leaned on my faith to understand the meaning of forgiveness. forgiveness to me means, to forgive the past, stop blaming myself, and understand i can't change my past. the nightmares, and pity party went away. second thing i did was get everything off my chest. i had a long talk with some family members. the betrayal, anger, resentment, and loneliness went away. i am still a work in progress, i am working on my self esteem. i pray that your future holds peace, joy, forgiveness, and FREEDOM. |

Do you have a therapist? Was your abuser your husband that you are trying to divorce?

it took me a long long time to come to terms with that myself. my mother was my abuser. it was not until she died that I could sit back and think about the past that I realized she was sick and really could not help what she did. of course she was not diagnosed but it to me is very clear. with that I can forgive. I will never forget though but when I do happen to think about it now it is with pity for her.

sorry for your loss (((hugs)))
you had to go thru life without expressing the hurt, loneliness, and all the other emotions you were feeling. of course it's gonna come out. but be glad that it is. closure is healing, talking about your abuse is healing. do whatever it takes to get thru your past and start living your present. |
