Freedom

This is something that we have wanted for so long and when we do finally get our freedom, we have no idea what to do with it. We can feel lost and very much overwhelmed by our new found freedom. This is something that is perfectly normal and to be expected. There is nothing wrong with you for feeling overwhelmed by all that is out there.

You have a chance to make real choices for yourself and that can be scary but have faith. Your ability to make good choices will prove itself in time. You are already off to a good start because you are reading this blog. That means you are either thinking of leaving an abusive relationship or you have left one already and you are building a new life for yourself.

All the feelings you have right now are normal and good to experience. You are alive and that is a good start to have and the rest is easy, it just takes a long time and a lot of work. You can do it, really you can. Just remember to give yourself the credit you deserve and a break once in a while you deserve it.
