Re: ~ The Toolshed ~
@Former-Member that is horrible not feeling safe. Who’s causing you grief? I am sure nobody will miss them. I’ve got rabbit holes to fill. They run very deep 🤫

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~
@Former-Member maybe no decision can be made just yet? Like if the path isn't yet clear to you, it could be that more info is needed or something, and you may have to just sit in the uncertainty (I know, yuck) until next steps become apparent?

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~
@Former-Member I agree with what @Jynx said. Sometimes things resolve themselves.
Having said that, personally there have been important things that I needed to address and attend too that I have completely ignored and avoided, because I am so terrified of making a mistake.
In the 13 year relationship coercive control DV, everything was my fault all the time. Even my adult children victim blamed me.

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~
@Glisten at the moment I'm just sitting with it and laying low.
That fear of making the wrong decision is strong. I don't want to rush into anything but I also have to make a choice.
I know your pain, I was in a relationship like that for almost 10 years. It does so much damage to how you see yourself and your decision making ability.
