Although I'm hidden behind my anonymity as much as I want to scream who I am, I wanted to post something that will give you all hope. 

I spent 6 years of my life with a severely abusive partner. Not only physically but mentally too, for years he beat me down and tried to tell me how much I wasn't worth. The last time I saw him he was stamping on my head.

Fast forward, I have someone now that treats me like gold. He has helped me become independent again, I have my confidence back despite the fact there are about 10 people trying to break us up. 

We are going to disappear. I cannot wait for the day we can finally leave this town of despair and emotional abuse, a town with one too many people that broke me beyond what I thought I could handle. I am being continuously  lied about here; people that don't know me have things to say. I am so proud of myself for not acting on impulses or sending ridiculous abusive messages despite the fact people keep trying it. I'm infatuated with the idea of having a life and not being scared every day that mine would be taken away. 

There is light, love, hope and faith out there for all of us BPDers. I'm so proud of every single one of you for doing what you do on a daily basis. It's now truly my time to be alive.
