So, WE do Survive abuse.
I can’t even describe in words how challenging it is. I do know that most of us don’t do this alone. There is no way that you get through this type of hell, with all of its hurdles, obstacles, and twists and turns, all by yourself.
You will always need strong, resilient, and compassionate people to help you on your healing journey.
I’m posting 8 other websites that provide support, education, and information to Survivors. Look for more.
Survivors, you are never alone.
WE will arrive at the solutions together.
