Is it me? Am I crazy?
Relationship Stress / by Lockets88

...See more Hello 7 cuppers, I am a mother of 2 young boys, and I have been married 5 years (together for 9yrs) I had a rough upbringing (neglect, foster care, rape, abusive/violent relationships) When I met my husband I was in a bad place in my life and he "saved me" (he has told me that when we met that is all he wanted was to save me and that makes me feel awful in myself no matter how good his intentions it makes me feel helpless) Fast forward to a year ago, we have been through a lot together, and there is alot of love. We had moved house and i left all I had ever known behind for my boys and OH to have the best life, not being good with change the move caused alot of anxiety and my OH pressured me into taking meds to help me that it did help for a while I feel like I am strong enough now to come off of them and finally get back to finding who I am, it's been 3 weeks and my head feels so clear and can not believe how much the meds dulled me or how numb I felt while on them. Before I stopped taking them I felt like I had enough of him belittling me and him being manipulative and analystic I would get very stressed out and thought I wanted to end my life so instead I thought I'd stop my meds and find out if it is really what I felt. I now feel stronger than ever that no matter how much I love him I need to get away from him even just for a month or even a week just 2 be alone and live for me for once in my life not be who he wants me to be. Its hard to talk to him, so I could do with some advice. TIA
