I went through DV at a very young age 20-23 black eyes slapped punched spit on choked til I blacked out and I just had to wake up realize my worth and that I dont deserve to be treated that way I left and never looked back ladies if your going through this just leave it’s not worth your life ❤
So glad you got out.Many blessings to you ❤
Leaving a violent relationship is when you are most at risk.. make sure you have everything in place to ensure your safety during this volatile time, before you leave.
JESUS BLESS YOU, KEEP YOU AND LOVES YOU SOOOO MUCH!! 🤗🌹🙏🌻🌻🕊🕊
Survived DV when I was very young… it’s been 34 years since I left him and we share an adult daughter and he came to visit last summer and unfortunately he cornered me one night when I didn’t have my husband with me and you know what?? He hasn’t changed not even a little bit!!! Same narcissistic abusive behavior…I’m blessed to be alive and well thank you for sharing your story 🙏❤️
JESUS BLESS YOU, KEEP YOU AND LOVES YOU SOOOO MUCH!! 🤗🌹🙏🌻🌻🕊🕊
These woman’s stories are so important for other women to hear. As this can save lives. With that said please remove the background music in your productions as it is distracting from these woman’s important messages that they are sending to help others. Thank you
.
This is literally! a sad story literally!
I literally couldn’t listen..
I literally couldn’t listen..
I literally couldn't take tht many laterally's if thts a word 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Literally
Literally I agree.
I wish there was no music in the background
The background music is very distracting!
I went through DV from 17-29. he choked me and tried to kill me.
i came from an abusive home and went right into the shark pit.
but you are alive! hooray! hope you are doing ok!
Yes I suggest watching sam vaknin
A powerful story of resilience and change
Thank God you woke up before did THE worse. Nearly every family has a story like that with some woman in their family. In my own family I know that my GRANDMOTHER, AUNTS, and my MOTHER were victims of DV. My mother, though, was my hero. Having witnessed DV when she was growing up, she too resolved to never tolerate abuse in her life. And she never did. When my stepdad became abusive, I remember her having like 6 duffle bags stuffed under our beds. When he left for work she gathered up all those bags and next thing you know we were piled on a Greyhound bus. Gone. Now, my mom was born in 1923, barely had a junior high education, 4 kids, no work skills, no money (my stepdad NEVER allowed her to have ANY money). But she had self-respect and courage, and she found her way to freedom. From that experience, if a man so much as raised his voice to me, I was out. Men are too dangerous to "wait and see". Like my momma, I do not play stupid games with men. The BS ended with my mom's example, and I have held true to that legacy. There are millions of women enduring DV. Maybe women continuing to tell their stories will give those women the courage to break free too.
When you said you didn't see the red flags because you thought relationships were a struggle,
I felt that!
Without realising it, i was taking on the role of God by trying to save my ex. It doesn't work!
I learnt this the hard way!
I Praise God for getting me out of that very dire situation, I know without a doubt it was Him!
🙏✝💪
The pillow thing yes lungs burning 😢 I've had all of those things too. I'm sorry to hear it. Often I think that deep down it is their own mother they are shouting out at to let them in when they are kicking our door etc xx
JESUS BLESS YOU, KEEP YOU AND LOVES YOU SOOOO MUCH!! 🤗🌹🙏🌻🌻🕊🕊
Sending you love!! ❤❤❤
The background music is very annoying. I want to hear her story but the music is distracting.
I experienced DV for a long time and I'm still battling with trauma. Thank you for sharing ❤
I grew up watching domestic violence between my parents. Same story, scared kid n said “id never be in a relationship like that.” Ya well never say never cuz at 26 i dated a 41 yr old abuser. Slapped my head, controlled me, slammed my fridge in apartment my condiments spilled, tiny hole in apt wall, berated me, looked like a literal demon when angry. Im out tho n im 28…. 2 years of psycho.
He was possessed by demons if he started to manifest physically as one. I’m so thankful to God that you made it out.
JESUS BLESS YOU, KEEP YOU AND LOVES YOU SOOOO MUCH!! 🤗🌹🙏🌻🌻🕊🕊
@@Girlintheewild thank you love, i appreciate that. and I agree
@@ark198989 Thank you, I love Jesus too.
Ive been through so much that you have Kristen! I have had crippling fear because he would tell me that he would find me no matter where I went or would threaten that I would never see my kids again.Im still working through some things, but am no longer scared. Jesus is the reason I survived. Keep doing what youre doing!! God Bless you.
Bless you for your strength and becoming an advocate for DV education ❤
I understand everything your saying unfortunately the fear also kept me there for 16yrs. A good friend was scared for me and said do you want me to come and get you. It was a sudden yes and I was out the door with my son she's still my best friend today. I think it's important for people to hear the stories it just might help someone else. I'm happy to hear your doing so well.
A good friend would advice you to go to the law not only leave the house.
I got hit twice, the first time he got beat down by my brother in law at the time, the second time we both went to jail for domestic violence but I got let out afterwards it was over for good, I took my kid and was gone I was 18
JESUS BLESS YOU, KEEP YOU AND LOVES YOU SOOOO MUCH!! 🤗🌹🙏🌻🌻🕊🕊
@@ark198989 thank you, Jesus bless and love and keep you always ❤️
Thank GOD For Ur Truth Ur Beautiful That Loser Didn't Deserve You Praying All Is Well In Ur Life Keep GOD In Ur Life He Speared You For Someone Else Healing Keep The Faith!🙏🙏
Very sorry for what she went through, very glad she finally left successfully. I was very distracted by how many times she said the word literally wow
The abuser plays on your emotions because he knows or thinks you love him. You have to trick your mind and think of him as the devil and run!
"Telling you that you were ugly" Thank you, noone talks about that. Have the same experience where he parted my face in 5 parts, telling me in detail why they were ugly with a smile.
Thank you again for talking about that it takes way more than 7 times to leave and that the police doesnt help.
Was raped aswell and never met him again after that. Funny that he denied me sex and shamed me over having sexual feelings and when I lost my drive, he initiated and when I didnt want to, he raped. They do the opposite of what we want.
He also told me he could strangle me to death, just like that, wasnt angry or anything. That and that I had a punchable face because it was square.
I find most narcissist videos doesnt describe all of this but this video does. ❤❤❤❤❤
Similar to so many including the one that has been on the news, Mica Miller Francis
the most dangerous time is when you tell them you are leaving. DONT TELL THEM, please leave quietly and maybe seek domestic violence shelter who can protect you. DONT ever go back to talk or whatever they ask you, DONT.
these people dont give up, please stay safe.
Thanks for sharing your story!
I knew what they were my problem was I thought I had everything under control.
It's hard to leave because you're put down that much you think you wouldn't be able to live without them, BUT, imo a woman leaves months before in her head before actually leaving for good in real life
A recent guy ask me can I live without him and I said I lived without before I met you and I can do it now and I left but came back mentally stuck and I finally got the strength to let him go and I didn't return. I felt bad at first felt like he was attacking me without even being in my presence
@@SpiritualWarrior96i'm glad you got out and hope you are okay now ❤
Adults should be ashamed to subject their children to violence and verbal and emotional abuse! It’s a crime before man and God.
You’re breaking these little children’s spirits. If you, as a man, have to physically abuse a woman or any other kind of abuse, you are a sorry excuse for a human being!
You’re emotionally abusing someone you’re with but you’re calling them ugly, stupid, etc? So, what does that make you?
Women, there are always signs. Nobody can hide their real character (or lack of) for long. Do not believe EVERYTHING an abuser tells you. Abusers are bullies, cowards, insecure about their manhood and take out their frustrations on women and their own children. And they are out there in big numbers and they can tell which women are the most vulnerable. Please proceed with caution and be safe.
How many times can we say LITERALLY...I literally am elated you are out of that situation.
I hate comments like this! Sounds like an abuser! She is pouring out her soul and that is what you focus on! What a jerk!
This couldve been my life literally I thank THE MOST HIGH everyday that he didn't lead me the wrong way toward the last guy I was dealing with he was a charmer
Literally?
You have said literally 37 times
More like 147.
