How to take the first steps
My husband and i have been together for 7 years. The last 3 have been awful. we have two children and animals together. He’s extremely verbally and emotionally abusive and has not been there for me at all. My mental health is not great because of it. I really want to start fresh and have a good life but i’m also sad that I have to let go of him and this life to have a fresh start. I’m not in love anymore because of the way he treats me , but my heart does hurt because I never wanted this for us. I wish he would choose me and choose to be better for our family but it’s evident that he does not care. How do I navigate through this? I feel so alone and overwhelmed.

Hey there, letting go has always been hard but when there’s nothing left you must! It’s not easy to let go of the ones our heart love. Think about how much better you and your babies deserve , they need a happy and healthy mama. I can never understand how a man can break the mother of his kids and at the end of the day the mothers must stay solid because they are the sole caregivers. Starting over seems like a big hump but I encourage you to do it unapologetically, one day he’ll regret not loving his family right. You’ll find someone that will treat you right
