I am writing this only because I found out today that Dianne lives close to me and I checked out her website.

I was in an abusive relationship for 8 years, over 20 years ago. I have admitted this to very few people and still am ashamed to admit that I was once a "victim".

My life has changed so much since then.

I am wondering, how have other women's life been affected by having lived in an abusive relationship? How do you feel about yourself now, after the abuse?
