Emotional Abuse is real. What if I told you that I was so emotionally abused that my nose would bleed like water. It was so bad, it would change my eye color. What if I told you that the person who did that was family. So, very close family that it was my mom. She was nasty about letting me see my kids. I did everything that she asked me to do, and still she would use my kids as a bargaining chip to keep me dependent on her. Keep my under her rule. Financially as well as emotionally. She was supposed to be my best friend. In the end, she died alone. My brother didn't even visit her. I figured it was just an attention getter and that she would be better soon.
I was poor and blind to her ways, until I grew up and had my life after the kids became of age. My stepdad might not admit it, but my mom used him to pay for my children's expenses and the foster money to spend on her lonely bankruptcy business and business rent. She has been gone now for ten years. Ten years, and I am finally finding my happiness. And if I get a runny nose now? It is clear fluid. No more blood tears and stolen firsts.
