I am still married at this point. June will be 32 years of verbal abuse. In the last 2 years I have became disabled and my husband can not handle my problems at all. the abuse has only gotten worse. He doesn 't have time in his life for me or my problems and he will not suffer because I got problems. real nice guy Uh? anyways I hung in there and my kids are grown. Son is married and stable job. Daughter is dependent on me. notice I said "me". She has Down Syndrome. I don't have a clue how I will make divorce as I haven't gotten my disability started yet. could be another 2 years. but anything has to be better than this. My husband seems to thrive on keeping me a nervous reck and has done a pretty good job.... My marriage has always been rocky but I was to stubborn to give up and I was determined to get my son raised at all cost. Well that job is done. and he has turned in to a wonderful young man and even though he too was verbally abused by his Daddy thank God he remembers how bad it hurts and he is a fantastic husband and worships his wife. So at least I did to one thing right. :)
I guess that is about it for now.

I read these stories and my heart goes out. I don't know how you guys stay 10+ years. I've been married to a jealous, controlling, hypocritical, irrational, psychologically abusive man for a year and a half and I seriously feel like I have lost my soul. I have aged at least 10 years since I met him in Sep/07.
We have no kids together so you'd probably say "get the H out now".
I wish I had a crystal ball. Everyone says I'm attractive, etc. and I don't have a problem attracting men, it's the whole getting to know that person, having them accept your life story, etc. that has made me stay in the marriage. Sounds crazy, eh?
I used to be the most cheerful, fun, enthusiastic person full of energy. Now I don't speak to anyone. Am alone. My only human interaction in 2 days has been the Blockbuster kid.

My heart goes out to you. I hung in there for 22 years of physical and verbal abuse. It messed me up and I became agoraphobic. There must be a way for you to get the support you need for yourself and your daughter. I hope that you can find a good lawyer who will work with you. It is so difficult to understand just how much this person has injured you until you are away from the situation and you now deserve to spend the rest of your life away from someone like him. Just know it is hard but will be worth it. Your son will probably be proud of you for taking the courage and I mean it takes courage to do this for yourself and your daughter. I had to decide that it was worth it to try to make it on my own rather than live with such abuse for the rest of my life even though it is hard to get to the grocery store and other places by myself. I can only hope my brain will heal over time and the irrational fears will be diminished, but that is how my marriage injured me.My prayers are with you and I praise you for your courage to try to begin a new life.

I am sooooo sorry! I was married for 36 years of torture. My husband is divorcing me --after I hung in for this long. So I truly understand. Perhaps you could get ss for your daughter and yourself. In the divorce, make sure you ask for and receive support for your daughter and yourself. You are in my prayers. Good luck.
