I don’t know why I have waited so long, and struggled so long to try to reclaim a life and a family that I will never get back. Three adult children who all hate me – none has spoken to me in a while. They say it is because they hate my husband of 22 years, but when I said I wanted to leave him – no one came forward to offer help, or a place to live. I have a monthly disability check, but I am afraid to just walk out. If I do, I loose everything, so I have arrived at a place where if I am going to loose it all anyway, why not just take an easy out. I can’t stand the verbal abuse any longer. I have tried suicide before – twice – but failed at both attempts. Older and wiser now and see my mistakes. Third time is the charm. I hope my children are happier.

Find a way to live for yourself. I know it is tough to be on your own. Your kids don’t sound like they deserve your attention. Call a women’s shelter. Find a way to find a new life.
I speak from my own experience. I live alone. Never married, no kids. I moved away from family to protect my emotional state of mind. Now, I am alone.
It is hard. Very hard. But I am going to do it. Going to find my own life.
The life you lose is your own. It is never too late to have a new start.
