I did something for myself for the first time in my life thanks to the support and advice of a listener. I went to the police last night and stopped a 13 year abuse cycle by someone in my family. Though it was one of the hardest things I've ever done I do feel somewhat relieved. I can't help but feel ashamed and guilty for not making it stop sooner and how my choice to turn him in will forever affect his life and mine. I know what I did was the best thing I could have done for myself. He can't hurt me anymore. To new beggings <3

@dazedandconfused11

I'm really proud of you for taking that brave step because, and I'm being perfectly honest, it is an incredibly brave thing to do. Incredibly brave!

You mention about feeling ashamed for not doing something sooner. I tend to look at it this way. You did something now. That is all that matters. You did something now.

It's that one courageous person who finds a voice that can make such a massive difference. "You" are that courageous person. That's "you". Don't forget that.

Really proud of you, @dazedandconfused11.. really proud of you :)
