Message to a Survivor
I was 42 when I was able to safely escape from my abusive husband. It's never too late to begin again. You're not too old. Freedom from violence is a basic human right. I hope my story will show victims and survivors of every generation that the abuse was never their fault.
Message of Healing
Writing is therapy for me. Sharing my experience with domestic violence has been liberating essential to my recovery. I wrote a book to warn victims about my experiences with domestic violence and the mental health ‘side effects’. As a budding advocate, my goal is to reach as many victims and survivors as possible; and to piss off misogynists...one book at a time.
For almost 20 years, I was in an emotionally abusive relationship. When we met, I had recently escaped from an abusive relationship. I was extremely vulnerable, and he took advantage of this with love bombing, grooming, and gaslighting. After severe (suicidal) postpartum depression and the birth of my son, I decided to file for divorce; I didn't want my son to believe that this toxic relationship was normal. When I filed for divorce, my then-husband became extremely violent to ‘change my mind’ and used me as a punching bag. I called the police, and now he has a record for his stupidity.
