Hi everyone, I just completed my 3rd class. I believe education and support are the keys! My hubby is backing off, because I'm becoming stronger and wiser. It was hard for me go to this class, but now I feel comfortable there. I'm glad I went now. I now know how to protect me and my daughter. I realize I'm not alone and other's suffer this same humiliation Anyway, I feel empowered! Thanks for all being here for me. Love, Cats

Hi Own!
Wow, what wonderful news. Sooooo affirming, isn't it, to be aware of what abuse is and to be around those who understand. With knowledge there IS power!
I am so proud of you! It's time to stop the humiliation and take back your power.
Hugs and welcome to the world of the healing survivors.

Hi Lemondrop, thanks for your encouragement and support I lived many years in denial and minimized the abuse. I needed to do this to protect myself, but now I'm ready to deal with reality. In the past I needed the denial and minimizing to "survive". Now I can accept reality and do what I need to protect myself and my daughter. Also, I always believed it would get better too on it's own, and believe me it didn't! I now realize keeping the abuse a "secret" was wrong. I was enabling the abuse and the abuser. At this point I'm able to cope by setting firm boundaries and consequences if need be. The counseling that I'm receiving is really helping too. Thanks again for your encouragement and support

Hi Pinky Bunny, thanks for your encouragement. The class I took helped me alot. What I discovered tonight at class is that life revolves around my husband. He is the center of attention/focus. It is all about him! My living and coping with his abuse. It is taking all my energy to survive. What a waste! Me and my daughter deserve a better life.
