Hi I just want to put this out there for my surgery
I’ll probably talk too much on here probably not smart but I will say this
A lot of the things are wrong with me now stem from being an abusive relationship for seven years in my early 20s
If anyone is in a situation, please please please seek help. There are many more resources now than there were in the early 90s.
The injuries may seem like that he’ll but they don’t feel well and leave problems for a person later
If anyone wants to PM me for tips on Waze to do what you can
For instance, the three times I tried to leave I bought money orders, Instagram away in my pocket until I could find a place to rent
I had issues with family that wouldn’t take me back
But now they wish they did
There are so many more resources now
And there are so many more stories coming out now from past survivors like myself who have so many pain issues
I’m not saying all my issues are from that, but they were many injuries, stairs, chairs, books, dashboards, and cars, black eyes kicks in my back when I was pregnant, punching kicking my head, being beaten down to the ground
I’m not saying this to get anyone to feel sorry for me because it’s just what happened
The same person ended up doing this to somebody else, and then somebody else, and then they may be finally changed
Point being is get out! If I can write a book while I’m recovering, it would be called get out. It’s not easy it’ll never be easy, but it is completely and utterly necessary.
I was stocked afterwords I had to live in a couple places where they didn’t know where I was
But in the end, it was the very best decision I ever did
PTSD sucks too, but I would let rather live today and not live at all
Or live being in prison, if I decided to kill the person that was hurting me!
 
Oh boy, word check socks, right I stuck them in my pocket in my purse, hit them until I could find a place to live
I will get money orders and save every little time I had until I can find another place to live.
But without a support system and hand, it was hard for me, not to go back because there was my son involved.
The good news is everything is better. There are things that happen to people that are way worse! I am a lucky one.
 
It makes me so sad thinking about how so many people live their whole lives in terrible, horrific relationships like this. Hell on earth and then some people say “well just leave him why don’t ya?” It ain’t that easy mother fucker now piss off! Man, reading your story got me pretty damn sad mad but I’m so happy you made it out and I wish you all the best. Hopefully karma finds a place for that asshole.

We love you and I am sorry you went through that. It’s something nobody should have to go through. Thank you for sharing your story. You are definitely a survivor. We are all in your corner.
 
Hi @Road Hog thank you for your words :-) I just needed to get some thing out. I’m very grateful for our little family here and if it helps one person, think about some thing in the future that’s one step ahead, and I was the other day.
There are support groups or long-term survivors. It’s just hard because no one wants to keep or live in the past but sometimes it’s good to make people aware of permanent physical damage damage.
And I always think that I’ve gotten it all out and then at times like these I realize I’m still working on it! But yes, I am very blessed
Kimda balance still waiting for the karma to happen. It has a small ways. But at this point, it’s in gods hands.

I actually forget the figuring out
But yea f families backlash on both sides

Noooo excuse though
 
So, one of my first memories is of my mother getting dragged out the house by her hair. See, she was a hippie who marched on DC in the 60's and my father was affiliated with 1%r bikers. Every relationship thereafter she was abused, felt Financially trapped. I can't tell.you how many cars and random places we slept. She was also a very brittle diabetic and sick a lot. That kind of abuse/alcoholic/addiction/ violence cycle was difficult to break from. Her last husband she marries after he broke her back. Once they split up he got shot 5 times but lived for 45 minutes before he died. Long story short, in her 40's she saw a counselor and stayed single until she passed. She was in college and lived on her own. Unfortunately, physically she decided to have someone help her pass when she was 54 because, being diabetic, she was about to lose her feet. So, she picked her own time to pass. I tell ppl jokingly that I got ptsd the old-fashioned way...child abuse but if I were to witness anything like this would be the only reason I'd put hands on someone. So,.I'm the end, she was married to 4 different abusive men, one Vietnam vet that got his head crushed by a rock for a couple hundred bux and another who got shot 5 times. My father just passed December before last. I had left home at 13 and we didn't speak again till I was 26.

Lemme just say, I have 0 tolerance for macho assholes or any form of abuse, animal or human and I've never raised a hand to anyone but I would in a second to prevent someone going thru that. The reality is, many times they feel trapped and it's not as easy as just leaving which is why the cycle often continues and its hard to understand
 
First, violence in a relationship is simply awful and anyone on the receiving end should find whatever non-violent solution they can to make it stop immediately. There can be no love without safety.

OK, I have to ask this for my own personal edification. Please don't mistake my curiosity for victim shaming or blaming.

@Akup7ich Were you ever violent in response to his violence or were you too afraid? Did the atmosphere of violence become commonplace so that it could ignite from either side whenever someone lost their temper? Did it spread so that you, your children, and/or anyone else who regularly witnessed it began being more violent?

Usually, at least initially, there is a clear aggressor responsible for bringing violence into a relationship. But does it eventually spread? Do some victims find themselves infected by violent impulses?

I appreciate your story and am grateful you shared it. I mean no disrespect and have a very good and personal reason for asking my question. My sincere apologies if I offended or upset you in any way. Many thanks.
 
Hi @CalJersey I understand. I found out later he was abused as a child. He used to torture his brothers, pets and hoard cakes in food, and then never eat it.
I guess that would’ve been a big sign if I realized all of that, and had some wisdom
We had a child young .., and my mom was not receptive to helping me.
So she kind of blame me, even though I was just really scared because it was mental and physical but the fact that he and I were friends for so long made a strange attachment.
So far, my son does not seem to have the violence. But he has his own issues.
I only struck back once. Basically, once you do that, then the abuser can turn it around in the the law shows up, say that the victim was actually the interrogator.
I watch this happen in his future relationships with other people. So yeah, there were a few others later. Eventually, though he copes with himself somehow.
Until my family and I got closer his family actually help me take care of my son better
I should probably just write a book lol hope that helps

Mainly blocking the whole thing out for often long periods of time no violent impulses but I do get angry like now right before the surgery. And then it brings it out and then there’s nightmares and then I realize I just have to get over it because I can’t keep doing that to myself life goes on.
 
Thanks @Akup7ich. Imma DM you if that's ok. Struggling with some shit, but i'm still new here and I have a business to run. This topic has the potential to be too caustic and derisive. I'm not known for treading lightly so I'd rather tread quietly.

Agreed, as a person who was with an abusive person for about 7 years it’s tough to leave. There is always a light out on the other side.

  1. xenxra @ xenxra: @WTF7218 it may as well be that way with how little effort some of the people on here make to find information that's exactly where you would expect it to be.
  2. ontovzik @ ontovzik: When I had long term shingles, lasting two months. All he could give me was a 10 day supply of dilaudid. He looked at the ground while we were talking about it. I could tell he was ashamed but it was the legislature and the governor that tied his hands. He was very upset that non-medical political people, the media, and the scared public were controlling how he treated his patients. Someday those people will need meds and a hospital bed and they will be gone.
  3. ontovzik @ ontovzik: I had a great doctor, he had the true gift of a healer and he stayed on top of all the science. He straight up told me that for many people opiods work for managing short and long term pain.
  4. ontovzik @ ontovzik: He peed it in the snow in my backyard.
  5. WTF7218 @ WTF7218: @xenxra 😆😂. Yes, but only a few brave souls will ever find the number. You must first order a Dirty Shirley from the bartender. Then you must discreetly take the cocktail napkin from under your drink and unfold it. There you will find the map to the location of the phone number, and clues to decipher the code that it is written in.
  6. xenxra @ xenxra: he left his phone number scribbled in a stall at the pub three blocks down
  7. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar I would try one of those easy online ones .. reddit gives useful info about that
  8. Alkazar @ Alkazar: @NYStateofMind I dont really have a history of abusing things, my docotr is just really stingy. I am thinking of switching.
  9. C @ Cheesus: Thanks xenxra
  10. xenxra @ xenxra: @Cheesus yeah, use snote
  11. P @ psychedpsych: Trump is cracking down….
  12. P @ psychedpsych: Hackers are the scum of the earth
  13. N @ NYStateofMind: so it was easy bc of my history
  14. N @ NYStateofMind: I didnt really tell him but he knew I needed a new script since my dr went to jail
  15. N @ NYStateofMind: @xenxra I was on Adderall since 15 years ago so my dr prescribed that w no problems and then when I lost my best friend my doctor rxed the valiums but
  16. C @ Cheesus: Temp.pm down for anyone else?
  17. xenxra @ xenxra: @NYStateofMind my doctor's have always been pretty open minded if i can actually come in and explain the pharmacological action of the drugs im seeking instead of just telling them why i think i should be prescribed. the only time it didn't work out for me is when i was trying pharmaceuticals for depression ten years ago and suggested they let me try testosterone instead (turns out i was hypogonadal so they made a mistake denying my request at face value)
  18. T @ Testisthebest: Even down here in Florida when the pill mill docs all switched over to Suboxone and/or retired you can still find some pretty liberal docs but you gotta know what to look for. Mine does "pain management, detox, anxiety,etc. And no insurance. My doc writes me 60 5mg Valium, 14 2mg Xanax and asked if I had ever tried adderal to get more focus at work as I told him I run my own business.
  19. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar do they know your history? Like I dont tell my doctor anything about myself except what they need to know,...I was able to get my dr to rx the highest dose of adderall along with valiums ..... if they dont know your history or there is no history I would just come out and ask what is the reason for their mistreatment.... they have no problem billing your insurance or taking a payment for the visit
  20. T @ Turbo259: @Layne_Cobain Thank you fam
