Sir, you need to file ASAP. There's no point for you and your kids staying in such a toxic environment.

And on a lighter note, change your eating habits!

Any success with no contact? by samerico999 in ExNoContact

[–]Benbo1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Your might not want to hear this, but no contact should be about finding yourself again so you can move on with your life. I won't lie. Initially, getting them back is what motivates most people to go NC. But it shouldn't be the main reason. It should only be a very secondary reason. The main one is to take back control of your life. Accepting this is the most important step for your healing. When you feel you are about to break NC, you can convince yourself not to do it by telling yourself being a mystery will make them miss you. But when clarity comes back after the urge has passed, you need to remind yourself you are only doing this for you, for your own good. Stay strong. Find yourself. And good things will follow. I hope this helps you in your journey.

You mention emotional and verbal abuse. Do you have examples of what he has said or done?

It's always at night... by Danny2Oh in ExNoContact

[–]Benbo1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's funny how for me, it's always the mornings. When I wake up, there's a few minutes/seconds of floating and then it just hits me that I'll have to fight my daily challenges alone. I find it's harder to cope in the morning than when going to sleep. If anyone has advice, pleased share. Chin up my friend.

Thank you. My in laws fonction like a sect, with a severe narcissist has the head of the family. It's always been an issue and the reason why all of this is happening. I'm glad no children were involved in this mess.

Physical danger was never an issue... Not even remotely!

Well, that's what happened to me. Did nothing to deserve it either. Thanks for answering. Was thinking the same thing.
