35+ check in Ocotbr 31st to November 5th 2021
This week’s check in I felt needed to be shared. It is on Domestic Violence. Whether it has been done to us or someone we know, there are ways to help them and I felt this article can shed light on how to help those or ourselves. I hope it sheds light on what to do or where to turn, I hope everyone in the Community knows I am always a pm away to chat about it.

Hello, Hope everyone is fine..
Good morning all,
I am new to this but I need a outlet I can speak on. I have had several strokes early blessed to be completely recovered with the after math of talking too much and emotionally feeling too much but blessed to physically be ok. I have a relationship with kids that is a emotional roller coaster with the unfortunates of a grand child stuck in the middle a ungrateful and fully advantage taken guy in which I been in a relationship with for 13 years! I have no friends no family no work group in which nobody to speak anything to so things are kept buiried inside I’m pretty much screaming with not one person asking or caring to hear. I would like to speak out or just to listen to others in what would maybe be a outlet to me so hi, nice to meet all and lol I’m finished!
I don't know what to do. I don't have enough courage to go out and work after a fee bad experiences My dad is very emotionally unstable, so naturally I'm the target of his venting and psychological violence.
I'm disappointed in myself that he drove me to break down and self harm. Coz he just feels more triumph and enjoys his emotional taunts more when I'm on the floor crying. And what is worst, my sister and mum gets very upsets when I break down as they witness me self harming while my dad was on with his triumph taunts. I feel bad they have to go through all these but there will always be times when I just exploded and cannot help not getting into "fights" with my dad as his vents are illogical and affects my basic needs. But at the same time as an adult, I know he could just cut me off all my needs since I'm supposed to be on my own ...
Honestly, I feel I didn't just do nothing, but perhaps I'm just doing things wrong. I tried to start a YT channel and blog in attempt to earn money. Invested in a new PC for video editing but I wasn't successful as of now (been more than 8 months?) Though I did picked up a $150 "paycheck" from my blog after 3 years. (My blog is 3.5 or 4 years old btw)
I don't know how to carry on from here;
Anyway, I don't wish to hide anything but please don't judge me and be kind. My parents buy me food while I stayed at home. If my dad gets into his crazy acts, my mum buys me food since its their daily routine to go out and have breakfast. So yes, you can call me a pesticides. All I do is use the computer, makes videos and then hope for my channel to blow up.
If you ask about my contribution to the family... I help with technology stuffs and I pay for all online shopping my family gets.
And yes, I hate my dad, for he threw a kitchen knife at me when I was a teen. There was once we were shouting at each other, and he threw a ball of newspapers at me, that's when I grabbed a penknife (it just happens to be infront as I was making paper craft) ... But then I quickly drew the blade in and when I lifted the penknife up I've shield it with my palm. This I can swear to any higher being, gods or whatever, my conscious is very clear on this one. But he had fabricated a lie to my sister and mum that I placed a blade on his chest. Lucky for me, my sister saw I drew the blade in and only have my fist near his chest, not even touching.
Sorry, damn I guess this post is a mess. But just needed somewhere else to release. My sister and mum have been supportive but it pains me they have to be put in this sport. My sister is working so I can imagine she facing stress from both work and a crazy dad. So yeah, even though she is always there for me, sometimes I feel I shouldn't put more weight on her.
Hello all using this service has helped i am struggling to keep my emotions in check even as hardship leaves, the anger still lingers anyways hope you all a re having a wonderful week
Nice
Good one
Great
Hiii
I was a victim of violence and abuse. It makes it harder when you're a guy. Nobody believes guys when they try to speak. My ex wife would hit me and scratch me. I called police on her, they just laughed it off. Wouldn't even send a deputy to my house.
