understand very well in some ways i was a little lucky as i was rescued byt a friends mother and take away from the pain fora few years

but the pain still come back plus i have to deal with not being ably to say good bye to them when they died as i was servivng my country when they shoot us down killing 13 out of 15 on the plane

all it would have taken was one person doing there job to cehck and see if my mother had a visit the day before and some one to check on my status and she may have lived a littlelonger

  John Bradshaw identifies that in his books he produces. Well worth a read for those seeking help in knowing the causes and antidotes to its effects

Stay strong is what I have been noticing. You sound like you know what you want out of life and made a bad choice. Men dont come with hand books and some are pretty skeezy. Keep your chin up and don't forget how strong you really are :-)

  Men are sleezy. I know because I am one. But the true scum of the earth are the men who ******* beat women and kids! If I was a cop I would shoot everylast one of those bastards

Thanks for sharing. What is the 'the other side' that your man went to? You mean he started abusing too? That must have broke your heart after you swore to make things better.
