    • Close Physical & Emotional Abuse

      I recently left a violent and abusive relationship after 10 years and tons of attempt to leave before. What broke the camels back was when he came home from working out of state and he had beaten up a co-worker. I just couldn't get passed that, I just know if I had been there I would have been the one to get the beating. I was at his place I just kept think, why is this life oka with me....I had already taken all my belonging to my place. It was just a matter of walking away.

      I was able to make a plan and I have made it this far. My plan included surrounding self with friends, family and my supervisor at work. That is what ultimately made the break.

    • Open Sexual Abuse

      After 30 years I have been able to deal with my father sexually abusing me and my sisters. It has taken alot of reading and asking alot of questions. Every opportunity to research and understand why these things happen make it better for me to deal with my abuse. I did not abuse my children, but my ex-husband sexually abused my oldest daughter. That was far more painfull than my abuse, cause it was my child that was hurt. She too is in counseling and we are very open about both our experiences.

    • Open Stress Management

      Stress is my middle name, I really had not accepted that fact until not too long ago.

I have had a difficult time at my job of almost a year. I love my job, I just don't like people, I guess. I don't like authority and I don't like me alot of the time.
