I was lacking this love, lacking attention, lacking validation.” - Jaimee“…he was so hot and cold, so he would be super charismatic and flirty and then all of a sudden would kind of shift and become quite offhand or even slightly rude.” - Jaimee“He called me so many names that night and I was just so taken aback. It's the first time I'd ever seen this side. I was a bitch. I was a slut.” - Jaimee“I was just an absolute mess inside and out. My body was shutting down. I shook all day. I shook all day constantly. I had anxiety attacks constantly.” - Jaimee“…and he locked the car doors and he drove off away from my driveway. And he said, I fooled you. I tricked you.” - Jaimee “I really thought that he said to me, I'll f*****g kill you. I'm gonna f*****g kill you. And I thought, okay, I really am gonna die here.” - Jaimee “That's seriously, one of the biggest things I've learned is you just, you can't, you can't outrun your trauma. It will catch you at, at some point, unless you, you face it and you deal with it.” - Jaimee topics | #DysfunctionalFamily #AbusiveRelationship #ChildhoodTrauma#CopingMechanisms #ToxicRelationships #Manipulation#LoveBombing #EmotionalAbuse #Control #AssaultSurvivor#Isolation #MentalHealthMatters #LeavingAbuse #TraumaHealing#SurvivorStory #HealingJourney #SupportSurvivors #EndAbuse#YouAreNotAlone #Resiliencemusic | soundsLost Place Atmospheres 002 & Just Deep 1 by Sascha EndeVery Low Note by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Other Music and Sound Effects by: Alex Wit, cybercutie, Samuel Kamau, Syouki Takahashi, Timothy Kulig, Pixabay, Samuel F.
