Almost feeling guilty

I didn't post when I still was with my alcoholic husband, as I was scared he would go through my pc and find out. He developed into a very abusive and controlling person, would not consider getting help and refused to hear me when I tried to tell him how I felt.

I left a week ago today, with only the clothes on my body and my passport/pocketbook (I am from a different country than he). I have been back here on this site every day and I almost feel guilty reading the posts made by users who are still in a similar situation that I was. I can't help thinking "thank God this is no longer my life".

I just want to give everyone a big hug and say: I feel for you, all of you who are struggling. Much love your way!

Hello TheMs, Welcome!

I'm so relieved to hear that you have escaped from an abusive relationship/situation. I am sorry you were treated so poorly!

Please don't ever feel guilty for taking care of yourself

You are very very brave. I wish you all the happiness in the world for your new life - it may be tough but you are free. We all deserve more than an abusive relationship.
