I can relate to a lot of this. And you're so right. People who haven't lived it just don't get it. They don't understand how hard it is to "just walk away" because we've been conditioned to believe it's all our fault and if we just did or didn't do certain things, we wouldn't "make him mad" - blah blah blah ...

I'm glad you've finally understood all of this and how it has impacted your life.

The great news is that we're remarkably magnificent healing machines. Thanks for sharing your story.
