How do you survive if everyone in your family is abusive to you and no one offer!


Question: How do you survive if everyone in your family is abusive to you and no one offers emotional support!?
Where do you find emotional support outside of any of your circles!? My family has taken turns abusing me physically, verbally and emotionally, my adoptive family and also my family now, including my son and my husband!. If I turn to one for support because of abuse from another they either verbally abuse me or refuse to talk about it at all!. My mother has convinced a lot of people that I am bipolar on top of it!. I find myself always doubting myself to the point of self-destruction and suicidal ideation!. I understand the obvious dynamics, such as being abused as a child and then repeating a pattern of emotionally abusive relationships, and my son has learned to not respect me from my family and from the relationships so he does it too!. So how do you find adequate emotional support that will help you deal with all of this!? I'm already in therapy that I can't afford and they are inconsistent with their scheduling!. Also, do you simply cut ties with your entire family altogether in order to heal, or does severing the only connections you have in life cause even more damage!? I can't take any more of this life!. Thanks!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Take time to get AWAY from these abusive people!.

I wouldn't say sever the ties immediately!. Take it slow!. But you obviously can't allow these people to treat you the way they are!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

no one deserves abuse of any kind call on child family services or tell someone at school or the police don't let this keep happening to you put a stop to it now make the call or go to neighborWww@Answer-Health@Com

I don't know if I'm in the position to give you the advice that you need!. What is your religion!? You need a religious adviser in my opinion!. And you need to be stronger, try to love and respect yourself more so people will give you the same treatment!. Its not healthy for you if you'll let people treat you like a doormat!. You need some time away from them, isolate yourself!.!.!.go somewhere that could recharge your spirit!.!.!.like a retreat house!. Bipolar!? are you diagnosed as one!? if not, ignore that comment!. If people are not giving you the proper respect I don't think you should just take it!. Go to a woman's movement/organization I am sure that you got groups like that there!. Also, know yourself and let them see that you're worth some love!.!.!.don't ask for love!. You should do stuff that could make you busy to avoid wanting for attention or giving them the chance to abuse you more!. But try to talk to you husband!.!.!.tell him in a gentle manner that you love him and talk about the things that hurts you!.!.!.if he doesn't listen try to get help from your church!. If not get out of that house!. Talk to your son, tell him that you are his mother and you love him!.!.!.and if he doesn't care about you and respects you!. If you don't get out of there, I think you're just a masochistic!.
God is always listening, pray to him and ask for his help!.!.to make you stronger and bless your family to make them see that you're a person too who has feelings!. Ok!? Take care!. Don't kill yourself or else you're just proving to them that they're right about you!.!.its not an answer to any problem!. Quitting are for losers!.!.!.be a fighter!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
