I have just broken away..hand hold & experience?

[breakingup]

I have finally after many years decided to break away from my parents. My toxic disgraceful evil parents.

Its taken a long time and a lot of tears, pain and abuse to get to this point.

I sent a letter telling them as they don't listen to me, me & dh changed mobile numbers.

All hell will soon break loose I am sure of it.

Has anyone else been in this position? What happened how did you avoid confrontation?

I've not been in your position but didn't want to read and run.

It sounds like you are doing the right thing, now stick to your guns and keep no contact.

Don't wait for them to react, just carry on with your life and do what you need to do to move forward. Have you got support around you?

Nothing more useful to add but it takes a lot of courage to break away from toxic people, your life will only get better without them in it!

Accept only people who respect you into your life and get rid of anyone who doesn't enrich it or hurts you. And have a big hug and some and .

Be prepared to ignore ignore ignore, or they will draw you back in.

Good luck; I don't know your background but stay strong, if this is what you want. You and DH have each other.

Thank you for the responses.

We are planning on being out of the house for most of the weekend as they will no doubt turn up at the door.

Never thought I would be in this position.

Do you own your own home? If not, would you consider moving hones/ town with no forwarding addrrsd? !It will prevent unwanted visits.

We could move if we wanted too but love our home so won't be driven away from it we will be standing up to them before that happens.
