Abuse goes ways beyond the physical evidence that can be seen. It's emotional and so much more. The scars last well beyond the incidents. For me, it was years afterwards and I was still paranoid if someone looked at me too long. Even though it had been years since I had gone through, the after effects were still there.
Within those years afterwards, I decided I would not be a prisoner to my emotions and fears, so I started talking about the abuse and more importantly, my survival!
If you are still here, YOU SURVIVED! You can move into a happy and productive life without the fear. If you're currently in an abusive relationship, please know it's not love and you need to get out NOW! There's so much more waiting for you. If you don't feel like you can do it alone, you don't have to. Call the NATIONAL HOTLINE 800-799-safe (7233). Right now.
