My soon to be ex husband was emotionally abusive and i put up with it to a point, one day i realized he had to go for my sake, so i kicked him out, now over a month later i'm starting to get angry with the lies and manipulation, i beat my poor teddy bear it felt so good, i've written him letters which i deleted or threw away and i must say i'm quite proud of myself
Great coping mechanisims, sounds like you are moving thru the stages of grief rather nicely. Glad to see you are doing so well and haven't fallen into the drug/alcohol pit. Keep on doing what you are doing and soon you won't be mad anymore. Then you can learn to love yourself for who you are and move on to a more fulfilling relationship! Keep on keeping on!
