Alone

[Ronnid3]

I am new to this forum. I was abused but so was my husband but he is in denial. I don't know how to help him but try to get him counceling but he is refusing. So I am alone while he figures this out. I am not sure what else to say on that. I was abused many times. By an uncle when I was 4 and then by several men as I was making money for the family. I was 7.
Now my problem is as my husband does his thing, he has left me with no money, hoe or car. I am disabled so can't hold a regular job. I have been living from family member to family memeber but am tired of being a burden financially as well as a bummer to be around.
Sometimes I wonder if being the virtuous mom and wife has done me right.
Girls like me, who were groomed to please men in pornos, can end up in street life. I have tried for 45 years not to give in to what I was expected to be. Now with money..is this where I was supposed to be years ago..i just postponed it?

Hi, and welcome to the forum. Took me a week to post my first message. Am so sorry to hear you are going through a hard time. I am a guy, who has had two assaults. I understand what it is like to go through this. Am not saying I understand what you are going through, that is not possible. Just wish you to know this. You are not alone.

Moose.

I'm sorry you're going through such a rough time, but as Lucy said, you are not alone. True, we cannot help you with your financial problems, but we can give you support. I hope things work out for you. And soon.

Hi. :)

you should never feel pressured into doing work that will upset you, there must be some financial advisers somewhere to help you and also theres lots of agencies who work with disabled people to help you earn a living. you sound like youre doing a brilliant job as a mum although you dont feel like it probably, the fact you want to protect them from you being "a bummer" shows how much you love them. thats what this forum and therapists are for as i've found, telling them stories that you don't want to re tell your family again so you dont upset them, talk away to us we're all listening :) :) i hope youre feeling better today x
