Feelings are like rain - part of the ever-changing weather.

R - recognize. What is this feeling?
A - accept. This feeling is already here.
I - investigate. What is the feeling wanting me to know?
N - non-identification. I can experience a feeling without it defining me.

I will not let the chains that held me back for so long defeat me. I didn’t overcome the pain from my own childhood trauma to be abused my a family I very clearly did not choose to marry into.
Informed NON-consent. I said no. I did not want your life or the life that being with you would be.

Imagine finally escaping the abuse and then being forced to ask your abuser - BEG - to be able to see your own child.

I will make it through this and I will heal. Again.
If ever I don’t - it should be considered assisted su***de, hand-delivered, by the ignorant and unqualified, soulless joke of the “family” court system.

When we leave an abusive relationship, every thing looks so dark and hopeless. But there IS hope for a better future. https://carolineabbott.com/2017/08/how-would-it-feel-to-get-your-life-back/

This is everything ❤️‍🩹

Unless the family court system tells you to. Then you are a slave to infinite abuse and become too afraid to stand up against it. AGAIN. After already doing it and starting over.
