My name is Maeghan. I was married to my ex in 2018 - 2019 and was a happy military wife at first. We tried for a baby for 3 months...once I was pregnant that’s when things started to become controlling and gaslighting. Holes in the wall and broken plates began. All doors kicked down. I wasn’t allowed to pee in the middle of the night. Wasn’t allowed to talk to family or friends. I wasn’t allowed to leave the apartment. On every pay day we were broke because he had an alcohol problem. Then he began to hit me and told me he hoped I had a miscarriage because I decided to tell him I was going to leave if he didn’t step up to be a father. We couldn’t afford food or toilet paper. After we lost the baby he insisted we keep trying. I didn’t want to and the disagreement after 5 months eventually led up to me being hit, choked, thrown, and threatened to be killed.

He broke any phone I had every time he’d hit me and abused the dogs we owned.

He wasn’t this man when I met and fell in love with him. After I moved away with help from police... I was broken. I was dealing with grief and divorce.

But now! I am a full time LPN student. I remarried to my best friend of 4 years, healthier, happy, and we agreed to start trying for a baby 💕

I’m here for anyone who just needs to vent, or maybe an insight on something. I’m happy a group like this is here for us.
