Lisa, this is Doug, Cindy Burrell's husband. Everything you say is classic verbal and emotional abuse. I encourage you to take full advantage of this web site and all it has to offer. The best way to equip yourself is to get the book, "Why is He So Mean to Me?" Most women buy the e-book because you can get it right away and not wait for shipping. Let me also add that you need to separate yourself from the abuser completely to get healing. Please take advantage of everything we have to offer on this site, and know that your not crazy.

My husband's emotional and verbal and controlling abuse has gone on 10 years. It is far worse the past four, when instead of me being the provider whom he used, he needed to take care of me. He witholds money for food, gas for the car, whatever he can to cripple me and literally almost kill me, and then cusses me and blames me. I lately feel that I have gone insane from all of the manipulation of not just me, but all the people around us that he can convince that he is an angel and that I am "psycho" including lying to them if I try to tell the truth. His, what appears to be severe mental illness, and lack of a conscience makes me appalled. He has left me now broken, without a dime, and does not care if I rot. He has used me up and beaten me down, and made sure many people think he is great, and that I am horrible to him! I have contacted many domestic abuse agencies, but none in my state of SC will help me b/c I am not physically beaten. So, I guess there is no help and he will get away with destroying my life. He is facing an upcoming trial for hitting his ex wife. He has a good attorney. Maybe it will go to trial, and at least some of his manipulation will be exposed and maybe he will be exposed for who he is finally.

Hello, Peggy.

Thank you for taking the time to come back and share what you have learned. We are all recovering enablers who have come to understand that the trauma we live through must be faced and addressed. There is freedom and joy to be discovered. I promise.

I'll be praying for you. Feel free to use the many resources we have available here as well as on the E-Zines site.

I wanted to let you know how much our weekly bible study group is enjoying your book "Everything My Heart Seeks" where you so eloquently and practically present many of the amazing attributes of God. It is a true blessing to us individually in private devotional time, as well as a source for topical discussion. When will you write the next devotional?

Cindy,

I have someone very special and precious that is in an abusive situation you describe. She wants to get out as soon as possible but doesn't know if she can survive financially. That is exactly what he has said to her - that without him, she would be in City Mission. This woman, a pure-of-heart and beautiful person doesn't have a college diploma but I can say that if I owned my own company, I would want her interfacing with people and clients. I may do some serious marketing consulting for my former employer soon, and I have told her I would pay her monthly rent and expenses. I have also offered my very nice guest room and basement and garage to store the little furniture she has. Yes,there is more than just chemistry between us - but on a mental basis.

Please recommend any books that would help her develop the courage to get out of there. There are no children and he fits vertually all the charactistics I wee as a mental and emotional abuser.

Her name is Jen - please help her and please pray for her.

I was searching thru the internet trying to educate myself on how to change my life for the sake of my son and myself which we both now live in a horrifying situation. I read through your site and chills ran through me because everything you said is what my son and myself are going through and more. I pray everyday and hope to change our lives. We have been financially constrained and we live like we are in a prison.I have no where to go and no money. My son and I are so stressed out that we can't even breath right at times. I am trying so hard to keep my head up and stay strong for my son in hopes we will get out of this hell we live in but just when I think I'm getting near the father of my son pulls on us like we are his prisoners and the chains get tighter and tighter. I have put myself through college and majoring in Criminal Justice to receive my Bachelor of Science degree. I have been under so much stress that my grades are falling and I just can't seem to get back on track. I received helped to support my schooling through financial aid and now I am scared I will not succeed, my sons grades are falling and his attitude is getting worse due to the anger towards his father. I just wish we had our own home and could get back on our feet financially so we could leave. I have been in this relationship for 16 years and I can't express how I truely feel without falling to pieces. All I know is I need someone to guide my son and I out and pray we still have a chance in life for happiness. The devil I live with has had me grounded from friends,family,and any type of social life. I took care of his mother before she died of cancer in January 2009 and my nephew died July 12, 2009 and my best friend died November 27th, 2009. The man I live with told me, take care of my mother and I'll pay the bills and work. Well, he put me in more debt then ever and now my credit is terriable. He is trying to do everything he can to destroy me so I can only rely on him. I am desperately seeking HELP.
