Hi all! It's all change for me right now. I have a job, I've been there for a month, registering deaths of National Grid shareholders at a registrars.

Matthew and I are still together but I have moved into a place on my own. It's a lovely little attic room with shared bathroom and he's staying with friends. I needed to get my own space and he is still violent and angry, although he is on depression meds and is trying hard. Last night he hurt me again and went tearing off in the car in the snow. But I love him and want to help him so I'm sticking by him, whether that makes me a fool or not.

I got my hair cut pretty short the other day and I'm forcing myself to not cover up my legs so much, trying to accept my body. I used the phone for an official call for the first time in years at work and did really well.

Plus I'm SI free since last August (almost 8 months)! It has been so horribly difficult but I think it's getting easier.

Everything is better than it has ever been. Money is a worry and my weight has crept up so I need to go back swimming before I get ill again.

So how is everyone? Please all let me know in this thread what's going on with you and with the forum in general. It sucks not having internet access, I miss this little community.

:kiss:

Hey dear, congrats on the job! I don't think being with someone who could hurt you is good, but at least you're nto living with him still! Maybe try get him into some sort of abuse counselling? I dunno. *hugs* hope things continue upwards. And WELL Done on the 8 months!!!!!!!!

I miss you guys :( I noticed SI scars on a co-worker today and it was really triggery. I'm staying strong though.

Thanks <alive> He's on the waiting list for some sort of therapy and doing a lot better the last week or so.

Huggles Rachel. I miss you most of all! :kiss:
