you are not pathetic ~
I use to pray that my exah would hit me to it would really be abuse so I could leave ~ today I know the things I endured were ABUSE ~ mental & emotional abuse!
And even if I didn't have those - I still had the right to leave, because I was so unhappy, so discounted as a person, and not safe in my own home.
Follow what your HP and your recovery program leads you to do ~
