If I rant the hell out? Like literally just type a good novel out about my life the past year or so? Possibly get some advice? I have been so depressed and keeping everything inside because I literally feel like I have no one to talk to or that anyone will understand. I know I only come here once a day and post on a few things here and there, but I've seen some of the other help topics. I can tell there are good souls on this forum. Even if no one responds, I think it would just be extremely helpful for me to pour this all out somewhere. |

Break out the L-word. The other L-word.

I'm always happy to lend my ear to any fellow human being who feels that their feelings should be befall a compassionate soul.

Feel free. Like Rumond said, Sonic Blast does not judge. It's unhealthy to keep everything inside, and I'd be happy to lend an ear. |

Okay..where to begin.. I just recently got out of a long term relationship. I still love this person with all my heart, and we even had a baby together. The problem was he was abusive towards me almost from the beginning. And it slowly got worse and worse as our relationship progressed. He would hit me, choke me, tell me how worthless I was and he was all I had, even said he was going to kill me before. I was scared but I was so in love I tried everything to make it work. He eventually got it to the point where he had complete control of me. I was paying all of the bills, I was the only one taking care of our son during the day, I couldn't go out or talk to anybody. I was completely isolated. But everytime I tried to say something he would start to get beyond angry. One day he finally left serious bruises on my arm in the form of handprints. Once I saw those I knew I had to run for the sake of my son if nothing else. So when my ex went to work I packed all of my things and went back to my parents. I got my restraining order against him this week. I should feel satisfied and safe, but I can't help but miss him. Not the abusive him, the man that I really fell in love with at the beginning of our relationship. But I know he's gone for good. I just don't know how to get over it.. I know I am doing the right thing and I can never go back, it's just hard to face that he is really gone. |

Everyone meets someone or some people at some point in their life that change it drastically. The sad part is, usually those people change or leave. We all deal with it in different ways. I may be 14, but throughout my whole life I've had to deal with this fact and suffer from severe depression. I resorted to cutting, attempting suicide, therapy, you name it. But the only thing that really helped was learning to love myself and drowning myself in music. I'm on my way to finding myself through this method, and it's also getting me to know who is or ISN'T best for me. You may love him, and he might even love you, but he isn't right for you. I'm glad you ran before it got too late. You may need therapy. Just please don't hurt yourself or bottle up your emotions. You need to let out everything you've got to any one that you've got that will listen. 1. Music. 2. Learn about yourself. 3. Learn to be happy with who you are. 4. Find the right people. 5. Every time you feel an emotion, tell someone. Just to get you started. I hope I've helped. |

I forgot to add that the three girls he has dated before me all have restraining orders against him as well. So I know he won't be changing anytime soon.. I'm sorry to hear that Rumond. I've also struggled with depression throughout my life even before I met my ex. It's a hard thing to admit to someone though. But there have def been days where I couldn't even move I was just so overwhelmed with sadness. And all of this happening in the past year and a half def didn't help me at all. |

Did you know about them and their restraining orders before this happened? But I know exactly how depression can affect you. I have offered all I can think of. :/ |

No, I just found out about it when I went to go get my own restraining order against him. |

Sorry if this seems blunt but I figure it's best to not beat around the bush and to allow myself to rant a little bit. I'm not trying to upset you but it's better to get my point across this way.
If he was abusive from the beginning that should have been an indicator of what the rest of the relationship would be like. And you should never, EVER allow someone to put their hands on you. I don't give a shit how much you care about them or how much they care about you, violence is never acceptable. There comes a point where there is a fine line between being playful and being abusive. And if he was abusive then you should have never been with him to begin with. Also he is NOT all you had. You always have other options. And if he has threatened you then that would be something to take him to court on. He's already abused you so that would have been an instant court date. There are laws in place to protect you from domestic abuse.
I hate to say this to you but that's not love. That's fear and submission. He controlled, manipulated, and scared you into thinking he loved you when in actuality he was merely using you just like he's used others (and that's an assumption based off of the restraining orders already against him... Which I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that I'm right...). Love should never be based off what this relationship was. You can't honestly say you liked or enjoyed being abused, can you? I doubt it if you just left him. You needed someone and you turned to someone you thought was good and when things were bad you stuck around because you needed the support. That's called being dependent. You had no independence, individuality, or even freedom. He's probably already over being with you and searching again too. Spoiler: click to toggle So a few serious bruises is what caused you to leave him? Considering he's abused you before that I'm questioning how badly he abused you on a regular basis.
Now I'm gonna change tone for a second: Missing something that has become normal in your life is natural. Once you become used to something it becomes hard to let it go. However in this case you need to get over him. That restraining order means he is not allowed to see you. And if he tries you had better be ready to call the police. Don't even try to reason with him or talk to him. Block him completely out of your life. Otherwise he may come back to harm you... I'm curious on this. If he was abusive from the start what could possibly make him worth keeping?
You forget about him and move on with your life. Give your son a future and live for yours and his sake. You'll eventually find someone who will treat you right. Be patient and don't allow yourself to lose sight of who you are. Love is something that has to be shared. Love is not cruel nor can it harm you. People can be cruel and will harm you but someone who genuinely cares about you will come and you will eventually know what true love is. Like I said, I'm only 19 but I've experienced only a small glimpse of what the true meanings of love are. You will know when the right person comes. There are signs and you will read them without even thinking about it and before you know it you will realize your feelings. Find someone who likes being around you but also gives you space to be your own person and treats you with respect and kindness. There are guys out there you just have to search. |

Thanks for all the advice guys.. Like I said I kind of just needed to vent if nothing else. I really don't have anybody I can confide in. I know what I have to do now and I'm definitely moving on with life in the right direction now. Thank you again for hearing me out. |
