Emotional Abuse *Tw*
I got out of a very emotionally abusive relationship almost a year ago. Although it was a while ago alot of the horrible things that were said to me stuck with me. It really negatively impacted my self esteem. I was constantly bring called things like worthless, pathetic and useless. He also tried to convince me to end my life after I ended the relationship. I'm having alot trouble bouncing back from that.

I am sorry you are struggling this long after relationship ended.... One of the most freeing items i have learned is ..........Most people when they say hurtful things or specific things to make us question our worth they do it to hurt and and knock you down for their self esteem.
I do not give their words weight anymore........ since items they often said was with the intent to live rent free in my head. Once the power of their words no longer stick with me ... it is a waste of their time to play that game.
I will not give them the satisfaction.. i have learned in my life my belief in myself is far more important then others.... even loved ones.
