Woke Up Anxious, Then Got Verbally Abused By Two People.

I woke up in an anxious state today, though my medication, because my abusive family is around. My mother's husband verbally abused me some more today; was incredibly negative against me and my new therapist, said lots of mean things, and then when I went out for a drive with my bf, he road raged at someone who cut me off driving, and then when I told him I was scared, and shaking, and that it had been tough dealing with my mother's husband earlier, he yelled at me "I think it's time for you to take more drugs, because you can't f*cking deal with reality."

I am very shaken up right now, and trying hard to calm down, and NOT take more drugs. I wish I had someone nice to hug right now.
 
Sending you a big virtual hug here. I visited my family two weeks ago after which my poor mom passed away. I was so shaken by this experience, did that at all register with my abusive father? No, he just whined and complained and I felt like I was in a prison. Now I am home and he even tries to be abusive via the phone.

I have to watch my own health, I will cut out whatever hurts my health, so I wrote him the final letter ever, telling him that none of his letters or phone calls will be answered. He drove my poor mom to the grave and if I would give him the chance he would easily and without any guilt whatsoever do the same to me.

If you really think about it it is our responsibility to get better too, so we have to remove the elements that make us even more sick, right?
If the doctor tells you stay away from diary or sugar so you don't get heart disease or diabetes, well then you follow those instructions to stay healthy.
If a PTSD sufferer does not want to get even more sick he or she has to remove the offending person from their life so they can approach better health.

By no means is that easy to do, it was so tough to know my mom passed and I am so sad, and now it is so incredibly tough to cut off my abusive father. Two very tough situations to handle. But if I don't do that my PTSD will get worse again, I can not allow that.
