i have always put others first left out what is important healthy in my life
i was married 23 years to an abusive ex husband mentally/physically walked on egg shells many years, i have been seperated since 2001 i have been more independant more determined in my life than i have ever been, my ex use to tell me i was stupid that i would never make anything out of my life well i may not be rich i may be living with manic bi-polar but im no longer having to put up with his controling ways, some people ask me how why did i live like that for so long, well back then a lot of women did thinking they couldnt make it on their own, afraid to fly like a little baby bird, well now im out and on my own and im still working on myself learning to love me the person god created in his image knowing im worthy of his love yes i have been on an emotional roller coaster but when im on the high end of bipolar manic i dont take my meds because you get to the place that you dont think you need them, but i do, my ex use to call me stupid all sorts of names wasnt really sure what was wrong i wasnt diagnosed with this until i left him, i kind of felt like a robot living with my ex he knew which buttons to push and i knew how to act what to say not say where to go not go, i made myself a promise i will never ever live my life like that again, even if it means being single the rest of my life, im happy here with my son and his wife and my two grandaughters i feel so much love its a kind of love that i have never experienced before i fell wanted and needed my two grandaughters have so much love for me, i know that i am not stupid i can do all things through christ who strengths me i was in church at one time everytime the doors were open it was an outlet to get out of the house away from my ex but he would sometimes take my bible and throw it across the room cussing me that would hurt so bad i got out of church but i have never forgot what god has done for me his words are still wrote within my heart sometimes we can get stobborn and run like a child from his her parent and god is just waiting with open arms, i do not go to church right now but church is in my heart i pray more now than i have in a long time, and since i have joined md has brought me back to where i need to be, i have met some wonderful people on here they help lift my spirits encourage me, im so happy to live my life for me with the help of god leading me our god is an awesome god i shall not be ashamed of the gospel of christ

You go Paula. Hold your head up and walk proud. You are the daughter of the King of Kings. That makes you a princess my friend.

I have been down that road and for a long time. Not as bad as you.....mine was a silent abuser. (but I dont think he even realised it....and neither did I back 12 yrs ago) I dont know which is worse. I also suffered from depression afterwards....and was steeped in it for many years. Like you........I am coming back.....discovering the good in myself daily. So much so now.....that I wont take bunkum from anyone (I was going to use another word...but remembered I was a lady.....hehe). I figure in meeting people....ANYONE...male friends or female friends or such. RESPECT AND FRIENDSHIP....are a great place to start and continue. I hold no fear of anyone any more. I am going out for what I want in life now....(noit meaning material things)......but friendship.....joy.....love.....and many other things......and hoping intense happiness will come somewhere down the track. One can only hope.

I take my hat of to ya girl. Not an easy road to journey on after suffering....but you sound like you have over come the worst of it now........and can SEE THE LIGHT.......and there is only one way to continue now.....and that is UP ...UP AND AWAY.......

You are on that long narrow pathway to recovery. Just remember, Paula, you are never alone.

i have never forgot what god has done for me his words are still wrote within my heart


Hold on to that, Paula. Don't ever forget that. May God bless you and keep you.

Romans 8:15 (New Living Translation)

15 So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children. Now we call him, “Abba, Father.”
