โA note for the next person. I was where you are this time last year. Financial control. That was my life. This year I did a 5k, slowly. From someone who gets it.โ
โPlease be gentle with yourself. I wasn't, and it made everything harder so the helpline helped me plan how to leave. I didn't know they did that, and talk to someone, even if it's just in here.โ
โIf you've just found this place, I was where you are nearly four years ago. The worst part was still loving him which confuses me. These days I mostly feel like me. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do. Hang on.โ
โI know it feels impossible right now. I left with my two kids and spent six weeks in a refuge, and I still love him, which makes no sense. But you are not stupid for feeling that. Take the help that is offered, even if it feels like too much. And if you can, find one person who gets it. It makes the days a little less heavy.โ
