DV Counselling - DO IT!

[nimuay]

Well, today I started counselling for DV. I think I would have let it slip by, but my abuser got out last week, came and got the dog, and has been calling me - get the restraining order lifted, I love you, while I was in I set up a lawsuit against you, I have to see you to really apologize, I can't wait a year doing abuse group I want to be living together again in 2 or 3 months. AAAAAAARGH!!!!

He won't work for the relationship by doing a group. He won't wait for a year. well, I waited for 2 1/2.

Everything I could do for him, I did. I've asked only 2 things from him in our time together - stop talking so much about hating, and give us this time to learn - you in your group and me in mine.

Neither one is going to happen, I guess.

Anyway, for those of you who are thinking about the couselling, go for it. Safe, comforting, gets you thinking about how to understand what's happened. Helps you build the strength you need to be safe.

So, the original reason for this post was this: if you even slightly think you could use some help, GO FOR IT!! Those people are here because we need help, it's their life, their passion to make us safer now and in the future.

Peace.
