Advice for recovery from emotional abuse?

Hey all !

I ended a relationship With my ex almost Two months ago when I finally realised it was emotional abuse. I have since found out that i am one of three women he has abused -one was so severe she was sectioned because she was suicidal. The other refuses to talk about it But confirmed it happened.

I threw myself into Work and moving on But yesterday i had a bit of a breakdown . I called the doctor today and Im going to have a pyschologist call me Next week for a chat.

I am still having nightmares and although Im not scared of him i do feel on on edge a lot .
Im having difficulties at Work too . When i tell friends i get a lot of ” good thing You got out ” and You’re better off without him ” . While i totally agree i dont feel they understand How stressed and depressed i feel. I don’t know how to handle these feelings either.

Anyone have tips that helped them ?

Thankyou Biscuit

All credit to you for getting away from your abuser.

Would suggest you enrol yourself onto the Freedom programme run by Women’s Aid. This could help with your recovery. Work on restrengthening your boundaries as these will have been weakened by him.
