I'm still stuck even when the relationship ended. Not stuck on the feelings, I'm stuck on the trauma.
I already moved on but there are things that's been keeping me. Like I can't do some things I'm interested in, because I feel traumatized.
My last relationship wasn't physically abusive, but more on toxic and mentally abusive. She controlled me the whole time, like she was the boss or anything. It was cute at first but then I feel like being strangled to death, she told me not to do this or that. What she wants she gets, i still feel anxious whenever I do something I loved.
She forbid me from that, the relationship has ended but I'm still chained to her visions.
Visions of what should I do or not.
If anything related to that person was said, I don't feel sad or anything. I feel terrified, chilled and goosebumps. Anxiety is quite eating me, my sleeping pattern was bad but it became worst.
I fear that I'll be stuck on this forever.

ReplyI'm so sorry to hear this.
How long have you been in a relationship with her?
Replyit isn't that much actually, just prolly half a year. I'm honestly quite glad that I detached myself from that
ReplyFirst, I want to tell you that I'm so sorry you were in that situation for as long as you were. Secondly, I want to tell you that getting away from her was so courageous and that you will be okay.
Staying stuck in fear, even after an abusive relationship ends, is very normal for a while. Keep reminding yourself that you are strong, you are safe now, and she can't hurt you anymore. That little voice in your head that keeps reminding you of the things she used to tell you will eventually fade away. It will take some time and practice, but you will learn to trust yourself again.
Have you thought about talking to a therapist about ways to manage your anxiety so you can start sleeping again?
ReplyThanks for the advice I'm still quite building up the courage to see myself with a therapist. Appreciateddd~~~
