I just got out of an abusive relationship, but it’s hard. HELP!?
I just got out of an abusive relationship, but I still find myself missing him. Especially at night. I cannot handle nights very well at all. I get so lonely that I can’t sleep and don’t know what to do. I don’t want to end up going back again or too depressed to move. HELP!
I completely understand you. I was in the same position. The only relief I found was going out more- however hard that was for me. I didn’t really start feeling better till I started dating again. If you need to talk about it- email me.
Loneliness is very tough to beat. Start going to your local churches and meet people. God will always be there for you.

You need support, abusive relationships leave you in a pile of rubble as a person and you need to put the pieces together.
And the familiar and awful has a strong force drawing us near. It’s very, very difficult to leave— but not impossible.
Get active now, and find a woman’s group and a counselor. You need help putting yourself together. Fill your days up as much as you can with things you enjoy and then take small steps.
I would also think about getting a pet, a cat or a dog might make you feel a lot better about nights alone. Or invite a friend over to stay.
