trauma and divorce

[QuinnP]

I've been chatting with the women's crisis center, I feel like I'm walking thru thick mud tho & I have zero energy. I' went to the courthouse today, & to see Elenor at the Women's center & THATS about all I have in me today. I dont know what a Grand Jury does, but I know I have to relive what happened to Joey

The Grand Jury will penalize him to the fullest extent that they can. It's a good thing that the case went there.
But I agree with the others about the womens' shelters.
The one up where I live offers housing assistance. They find you a home/apartment and help you move in and get a job.
Hopefully your will too.
Until then, you'll need lots of these

And hubby... well... He'll be shown all the courtesy he deserves when he goes to jail

so sorry for all your troubles.

he was never violent in the past, I dont know what happened to him! Whoever murdered Joey it was not the man I married!!

Oh my goodness. Your story breaks my heart

I am so sorry this has happened to you. You are right though, if he can do that to an animal, he can, and eventually will, do it to you. Filing for divorce is the only appropriate reaction.

I must say, I am confused by your parents reaction. I know that if I was in your situation my parents wouldn't hesitate to shelter me. Nor would I hesitate to shelter my children. That just makes no sense IMHO

My heart and prayers go out to you.

Did he lost his job? Depressed? Drinking? Medical reason? Lack of care for the bunny? Was the bunny doing messes that he didn't appreciate? Those things can set the man off to the deep end.

Women crisis or Dove facilities can help you out to get on your feet. Your husband will be charged with animal cruelty and he will pay fines and jail time. Not everyone would forgive their hubbies for the hideous acts, done it once, for the rest of your life, you will be on guard. The trust has been broken. It will take major counseling if he still wants to repair the damages but the deed was done.

In the meantime, LOTS of hugs!

So sorry you're going through this.

My parents forcibly took my daughter away from me after her father, my first hubby, died. We have radically different parenting styles. They legally adopted her a few years ago. I think they're afraid I would undo everything they've set up. And Nate has been manic for almost 2 months. Joey did chew the cord off of his atomic clock which really annoyed Nate.

A person gets one chance with me, if he touches my pets or me out of anger its over. I forgave him for flinging garbage all over the room once, the times he got arrested for either (adult subject matter removed by staff), hollering at me, calling me names, saying he hated me, but its over now. I stood by him & his untreated mental illness for 10 years, he crossed a line this time



Remember, we are a family friendly forum, please.

Please work with the womens shelter and do as they say. Hard as it is. Things can get better but please follow their advice until you heal. All good things take time.

It can get better,
