when i look in the mirror i never trust what i see having trouble realizing me told what to do, what to feel where do i begin to find what is real i said no, “you mean yes” i guess not so sure anymore an uneven score wanting more do i deserve such i feel i have been missing much caught in a web of lies unheard for years, my many cries chains stay the course do you think he feels remorse overactive emotions dysfunctional neurotransmitters i’m not a quitter not even bitter i just need to know how do i go from here to there care self-distrust do i matter much it’s not a crutch i’m struck by a twist of fate stalemate maybe someone help me figure this out untwist my brain serotonin lost my mood the cost depressed on a quest to find my true mind real emotions presynaptic collapse my body reacts self-harm moving to my arm sound the alarm imperfections now found on my body’s sacred ground tell me the truth show me what to do is this true as tears drop shocked mediating tension hand is wrenching stainless steel again appeals to the theory of invalidation

There are many reasons an abused person stays so long. Safety, resources, support top the list. START THERE! He tried in this very room. But I’m still here!

I am pursuing my dream of being a helper. I am working through college to become a social service worker. My passion for helping others who have experienced similar events in their lives as I have is what drew me to this diverse and ever changing (and challenging) field. I am a survivor of domestic violence. 13 years with my abuser. 13 years of emotional, financial, physical and sexual abuse. My children that he fathered have experienced trauma due to this. They have experienced their own abusive relationships, addiction issues and severe mental health issues. They have been working hard to overcome their traumatic childhood and I have been right there to support them and help them. It has been over 10 years since we were freed from that nightmare and life has been good to us.

The program I am in has given me a lot of insight and I am learning so much about family dynamics and intimate personal and family violence. Also, learning about Indigenous issues has helped me help my children understand their heritage. Taking this program has helped me understand addiction and mental health issues in a whole different context.

My end goal is to be employed at a women's shelter or an addiction facility. This program has 2 placement practicums and I plan on doing 1 placement in each facility.

The thing about the violence

When it finally stopped

When I could no longer remember what your voice sounded like

...you still haunt me

My body remembers

could you hit me just once, leave a mark split my sides for the world to see rather than fighting my mind i succumb to the blind sides of pain & agony

PLEASE push me against the wall make me fall, bleed you invalidated me long ago sowing seeds of insignificance

punch my clock leave me to rot confused by lies i’d like to see you cry innate emotional intelligence this dance has broken my defense i don’t know what to believe about me

emotionally lost my cost tossed minimized killing my confidence constantly paying penance drained soul raining

draining “stop being so emotional” my backbone no longer breaks with stones thrown

knock me out, cold tired of the toll unheard, discounted pressure mounted nailed to the cross you say you’re the boss

i now carry my weight in an altered state splintered wintered

hit me, it’s all good leave me like you should bleeding i won’t beg for my life PLEASE at least then i have a chance leave me for dead

~~~~~~

“Telling a person she shouldn't feel the way she does feel is akin to telling water it shouldn't be wet, grass it shouldn't be green, or rocks they shouldn't be hard. Each person's feelings are real. Whether we like or understand someone's feelings, they are still real. Rejecting feelings is rejecting reality; it is to fight nature and may be called a crime against nature, "psychological murder" or "soul murder." Considering that trying to fight feelings, rather than accept them, is trying to fight all of nature, you can see why it is so frustrating, draining and futile.” ~ S. Hein ~

Since it was mental health awareness month, I want to allow everybody to tell us your experience with mental health. I’ll start, I think my first exposure or recognition of mental health issues wasn’t until my 20s. This is during the time that I first got incarcerated. What led to all that was a life of addiction, and choosing to live the street life! So in my 20s while I was incarcerated, I took classes such as life skills, and that’s when I realized that these issues in my head, and why I chose to do the things that I did when I didn’t have to became clear to me that this is normal, not normal like it should happen but normal im a sense that I wasn’t some weirdo or the only one living with these types of issues. This is when I realized that I wasn’t alone and I wasn’t the only one. During this time, I got diagnosed with depression and anxiety, which has been some thing I’ve dealt with on and off throughout my life, although more recently in my later years I would come to be diagnosed with severe PTSD. This was led by toxic relationships. A continuous, vicious pattern of toxic people that I continued to attract, and one of them was so toxic that it truly traumatized me. And the crazy thing about it is that I continued to want to be with him! Talk about insanity, doing the same thing expecting different results. Anyway, I will talk more about that. If you guys are interested in it, I just wanted to start this off and be open to raising awareness because mental health really is an obstacle that most of us face. It is something that must be addressed at one point in time in our lives, and it’s better to face it head on and know that you’re not alone!

when.

In 2014, I went to see a therapist to talk about my childhood a bit. After telling her about my current home life, she went dead silent.

She looked at me intently. “Leave.” She said. “It’s only a matter of when and not if that this man kills you.”

My mind could not wrap itself around her words or think that was possible. I lived with a well respected college professor at a local college.

I went home and did not tell him what she said to me, and I never did.

Two years later, he had both of his powerful hands around my throat for what felt like eternity before he threw me across my living room by my neck. Later, he told me he strangled me because I “wouldn’t shut up” and “what did I expect?” for not shutting the fuck up. We were talking about him going on a trip to Mexico with his ex girlfriends the previous week without him inviting me. He raged at me before I knew what was happening.

Abusers will hit things around you before actually moving on to inevitably hitting you. As my therapist said, it is only a matter of when, not if.

Kitchen cupboards kicked. Phones thrown at walls. Plates broken. Banging fists into walls, car dashboards. Broken computers. Yelling, screaming, name calling, raging...raging...Him raging at me while he was driving 90 mph on the freeway, almost foaming at the mouth from rage. All because someone, me, talked too much or made too much noise or asked too many questions.

Strangulation leaves no outside marks, in my case. I was too scared to report him, since he threatened me with violence after he assaulted me.
