“Leaving a DV marriage”

Grew up in a DV home, got trapped in an abusive marriage, isolated from friends and family, and had to find ways to escape

What I wish I knew
"The severity of the situationierte and the importance of seeking help early"
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't wait, reach out to trusted people, and take advantage of available resources"
