After being on this fantastic site for a few months now and reading everyones advice Ive realised something. Everyone giving advice after leaving an abusive relationship has said "its the best thing i have ever done" "i left and i am happy now" ect. I have not seen one person (on here or in real life) say they regret leaving an abusive relationship or they are worse off for leaving. Something to think about for all those poeple sitting at home thinking should I leave, what will happen to us, will it get better? I know its hard, i know it seems impossible at times and i know you may feel too ugly/fat/worthless to find anyone else. But believe me, once you take the plunge and leave and realise that your holding things together and you have no one in your life putting you down; you will thrive! You will realise what an amazing and strong women/man you are. You will see the beauty within you (and on the outside) and you will have the energy to take on life and everything it throws at you! Just something ive been thinking about today, writing by someone who has been there and gotten out. Lots of love sisters xxx
