    About this ebook

    In 2009, I escaped an abusive relationship. At the time, I wasn't sure that's what it was called, I just knew I was very, very unhappy and a little bit scared. Since then, I have healed so much of myself and made many discoveries of how and why I stayed as long as I did. With this book, I hope to inspire you to believe in yourself a little more and understand that you do have options, even though it may not seem like it right now. Since I left my difficult relationship for the last time, I understand a bit more about the denial that causes us to stay, the temptations that pull us back in over and over, and the ways to get out for good and move on. If you are in a difficult or abusive relationship (or know someone who is), I urge you to check out this book and see if you can learn how to put your own personal well-being first, from this day forward.

      I escaped an abusive relationship in 2009 with my only son, then 3. I’m not going to go into the story. It’s probably the same as yours. Different faces, different places but probably the same words, the same insults, the same situations. I’ve decided they all read from the same ugly manual of insults and manipulation. Whether you are a female or a male, if you suspect you might be in an abusive relationship, you probably are. No human being should be made to feel less than, smaller than, beneath any other human being or bad in any way. Ever. And there is never a reason to lay your hands on a person out of anger. It’s never acceptable. No matter what is happening, it’s never ok.

      I hope this book will inspire you to think about great possibilities for your life that may have never occurred to you before. You do have options. The most important thing I hope you realize is that you aren’t as alone as you think you are. There are people who understand exactly what you’re experiencing and there are people who can help. You can choose to work on you. You can’t change your partner. You can only change yourself. Get out. Get out now. Don’t look back. Ever.

      Let’s do this….

      10 Things I Learned After I Escaped an Abusive Relationship

      Many people who are in an abusive relationship are in denial. There are lots of forms of denial, and I’d like to outline some of the ones I’ve had experience with. Even if
