Nothing works when you don’t feel safe in the house you stay but you’re controlling ex still controls everything about my life.
Pack a bag when he is away/at work and leave him. Don’t let him know you are leaving, just do it when he is away. Of course you need to make your arrangements ahead of time. It sounds like it is time for you to take control of your own life. ❤️
Thank you Dr. Hyman for all these tips for improving my sleep
