I need a safe outlet, which is the same reason a lot of people begin blogging. I have been in the blogging community for a few years with other blogs, but I now need one where I am completely anonymous... and this is it.
The reason I need to be anonymous is because of all the crap that is happening in my life right now. My husband and I are separated, heading for divorce, because I finally got fed up from the years of physical, mental, emotional, and sexual abuse he put on me. With each child that was born, he began to abuse them, too. Hitting, yelling, swearing, and belittling was everyday normal-ness. When I had enough of the crap, and I knew he wasn't going to change (I gave him 12 years) then I reported the violence and abuse to the Police and he was charged... but NOT convicted. He lied enough on the stand to cause the Judge reasonable doubt, and was therefore acquitted of the assault charges.
My plan for this blog is to discuss my thoughts and feelings from the aftermath of being abused for 12 years. The cycle is still happening to me on the inside, and I am trying to figure out how to deal with it. I am learning, growing, and trying to teach the children what 'normal' home-life could look like.
I appreciate your thoughts, comments, and your life experiences. I am hoping we can learn from each other, because I really need to interact with people who have gone through similar experiences...
