The National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE (7233) have advocates available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week who can provide crisis intervention, escape planning, information and referrals to victims or anyone calling on their behalf. If you are still in this relationship or still being threatened/abused by this person, visit their website by copying & pasting the following URL into your browser: http://www.ndvh.org/ You don't deserve to be mistreated in any way, Jessica Ann. You deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. You must first treat YOURSELF with that dignity and respect by making choices that will get you out of such relationships as soon as they become violent, either physically or emotionally. Love does NOT hurt, and it does NOT include threats or any kind of violence. Get the help you need to protect yourself. Have a support system in place so that you aren't isolated and put in a position where you have little or no choices you can make for yourself. Keep your friends and any loving family that you have close. And call the hotline listed above for additional help and support if and when you need it. I send you love, light and healing energy, Jessica Ann. Thank you for sharing your story with my visitors and me.
