I Am a Domestic Abuse Survivor

This might be the only song I've heard that so concisely yet subtly described my experience with domestic abuse.

I'm a child abuse survivor, and I can relate. Great song and thanks for posting.

I'm sorry to hear that, ragingfire. That's incredibly tough but you made it out the other side because here you are.

@Magnolia: thanks, and domestic abuse is really really bad and no one deserves it. You must be very tough to have overcome it.

We're all certainly tougher for making it through abuse 💜
