Please i need help

[Obscene Eyedeas]

I cant believe what has happened. i was recently in a relationship where i was beaten and controlled and my severe depression kept me there a long time. when i let go i was so happy to be free but he kept desperately trying to get in contact with me and our parents became involved. all he wanted was to talk to me. and now. . . . .

he has attempted suicide and they don't think he will last the night. its all my fault.

i wish it was me about to die Not him.

i don't know what to do. this is all my fault. and i feel like it died inside. i can't do this!!! please someone help

Laura like I keep telling you- this is NOT your fault. Its just him, its the way he is. He did this to himself. Not your fault. You couldn't have stayed in that relationship if you had ANY self-respect! Remember the way he treated you the night at the chipper?!? This was not your fault.

this isn't your fault. you can't cntrol him or his actions.

Laura, its not your fault. No one would want you to stay in a relationship where you were being abused, you have no reason to feel any guilt. The fact that you still show concern for someone that treated you like that reflects great credit upon you. I've sent you my contact details if you want to talk further.

I appreciate this is a very tough time for you. You did the right thing though letting go, there's no doubt about that. When you've been emotionally involved with somebody to that degree and had those things happen to you, then you're going to feel like part of the problem. I can tell you that in reality, you are not. You are not a problem and this is not your fault. Letting go was hard for you I know, but it was also a huge step forward.
