The long story short is that I seperated from my H last Autumn after years of mental and occasionally physical abuse.
Since the seperation several close friends and family members have asked how I am, what went wrong etc. I decided to tell them about the occasion h raped me because I needed people to see what he was really like. One of my friends went very quiet after I told her and then has distanced herself from me ever since.
Perhaps the worse thing though is that my own mother thinking I am lying and 'confused' due to the depression I suffer with and doesn't want anything to do with me now. She even phone h to see how he was!
This has been the worst time ofy life and they've all effectively abandoned me. I am the victim but I'm been treated as if I've done something wrong.
