Find Strength When Abused

The bravest thing I ever did was make me a priority and left a relationship that the only thing that was consistent was being abused and used. Don’t ever say you won’t do anything bc I been in some toxic relationships but shit changed when I was in a marriage where I was not only abused mentally but PHYSICALLY! The feeling of being trapped in your own home, thrown on the floor, grabbing your face screaming directly in your face is a feeling no one should ever experience!

Having a protective order on someone and no paper mattered bc he snuck in one night as I’m laying in the bed sleep, I roll over and the person you fear is standing at the bottom of the bed staring at you. Being so scared not knowing what he was thinking to do – the only ones I thought to protect was my kids. I got them all together putting them in the bathroom telling them not to come out no matter what as I called the law.

Not many know all this but during those times – I found power and strength – I never knew I had! Which is why these days I don’t just bring anyone around me or my kids!
