[QUOTE="blackgnat, post: 655595, member: 13561"] Cedar, I'm the mom with the bleeding brain-I look back and see that Life was HELL and Home was TORTURE. And I was just so deluded and in profound denial and lost and terrified, that I didn't know which way to turn. So I let it continue, because I thought my "love" would save us. What a difficult and heartbreaking journey we go through and what an enormous sacrifice we have to make, to extricate ourselves from this. We get pushed to the point of insanity and have to decide-"It's you or ME, kid, and I can't have it be you anymore". That's possibly the hardest thing I have ever had to do, but his manipulation and bullying and sadism was sending me to an early grave via an overindulgence of alcohol. I just wanted to escape reality, leave my brain on the kitchen counter and run screaming down the street. Something I will never go back to. Sorry, I think I highjacked this thread with my ramblings-just saw myself in your comment and wanted to let you know that, like the cockroach after the nuclear holocaust, I'm still around :) [/QUOTE]
