Lookback: 1 year after escaping

left abusive marriage to protect myself and kids

My ex-husband had an affair, threatened to kill us, and physically abused me in front of our children.

What I wish I knew
"How to cope with the trauma and anxiety that comes with escaping abuse."
If I could tell you one thing
"Seek help immediately and prioritize your safety and well-being."
