The Things You Gain the Moment You Leave an Abusive Relationship

Your smile. The minute you leave you have a great reason to smile.

A good night’s sleep. You’ll have things on your mind but you no longer have to worry about what you are going to wake up to.

Choices. You get back your freedom to choose whatever you want.

Peace. The chaos in your head eases and you relax more.

Calm. Things immediately become calmer, despite the upheaval.

Space. Space to think, breathe, and get to know yourself again.

Control. You are now in control of what happens next.

Clarity. The cloud lifts slightly as the chain loosens and you start to look at things more clearly.

Your future. It’s back in your hands.

You. You may feel lost but you can now find your way back to your true self.

Leaving isn’t easy but the minute you do, the light at the end of the tunnel gets closer.
