Yeah, the old, "I never hit you" gaslight! Ugg, that pisses me off. Don't kick yourself, you leave when you're ready to leave. I just had to give a so called retired nurse a piece of my mind for calling both my son and I out for "sounding helpless." See the comments, you'll find it.
People, unless they've been there just don't get the headfuck, how that kind of abuse can change the core of a person, strip them of any will or ability to fight back...I'm so pissed right now, I might have to write a separate story on this...
