[QUOTE="idohope, post: 564908, member: 7722"] Short on time but wanted to get in a response. I am divorced one year from a difficult relationship. Not the abuse you suffered but many years with someone with definite anger issues. Took me a long time to get out. Beleiving that I needed to save my marriage, trying to make sure the kids were protected (they could not have spent 50% time with him; no physical abuse but emotionally absent from them in some ways), had to get difficult child stabilized. It was hard. I needed help. It took a while but I found the right therapist and the right medication, and this board, and my church and other forms of support. In the last month I find I am getting myself back. People at work and church are noticing that I am smiling more. I am listening to music more. I am finding the person that I used to be a long time ago. And that is amazing and I want that for you. Find the strength. You can do it. We will be here to support you. I too love Maya Angelou. Have had the opportunity to hear her speak in person twice in my life and recite her landmark poem: "Phenomenal woman, That's me." And that is you, too! Will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
