I feel lost
Hi,
I used to be in an abusive relationship, and he became very controlling and manipulative. He raped me multiple times and I am really struggling to live with this. I don’t know how to feel. I feel sad all of the time, I am always irritated by little things and I’m really struggling to cope. I feel like the only way out is by ending things. I don’t know what to do. I am on 6 months waiting lists for counsellors and therapists but it is too far away and I can’t hold out for that long. I just want to feel myself again
@faithfulRaspberries4532 Hi my love, I'm really sorry that you have been through this, I know from my own similar experience how difficult it is to cope with these feelings. going through something like that can often leave a person feeling stripped of themselves and their identity, and all the things that used to bring happiness fail. I know I certainly felt like I'd been stripped of everything that made me me. I know its hard to believe, but things can, and do, get better.. It's horrible waiting for help, unfortunately these waiting list drag on for ever. there's always people to listen to you and support you on seven cups whenever you're feeling low and help you find those little things that make you feel like you. you're an incredibly strong person, the fact that you are here proves that, please don't feel like you need to give up, there is a life full of happiness and love on the other side of this sadness that i'm sure you will reach. please feel free to message me anytime, and if you're feeling like you need urgent help, please don't hesitate to contact 1-800-273-8255 or www.suicide.org
Thank you, I just want to know when things will get better. How did you manage to get ‘over’ the feelings? There is so much grief that I feel and I want yo be happy again. Is there anything you did or any kind of help that you had to get you through things. Thankyou for your support
