Welcome to my home page. My nick is jimmeo, my wifes nick is sheila, she is an abuse survivor. We have been married 24yrs. We have seen some bad times,,,but have seen alot more good than bad. I love her very much and expect to be with her for the rest of my life!
As i have mentioned above, my wife is a survivor. She
has went through a lot of abuse such as, sexual abuse, mental abuse, physical
abuse, and from that came the meaning of surviving. It is real easy to
say we are doing ok,,and we are fine, but when you have been hurt like
this,, and can say i am ok,,you have said a mouth full. She is also mpd
(mulitiple Personality Disorder). This stemmed for being abused. My wife
is very special to me, but to the world my wife has nothing special, mpd
is very common, and may also be called d i d (Dissocitive Identity Disorder).
When i look at a abused person,, i dont look at them like I use to, I use
to think, it is over,,so just get over it and go on with your life. That
is not how it works! They have flashbacks (Memories they have not had)
and they are as real as if it was happening right now, and I mean REAL!
I have seen it, and know it is like it was happening right now, nothing
I could say would stop it, or help it, and that leaves you feeling helpless
to help them. You just have to watch, hold, and love them, and wait for
it to be through. They are really SURVIVORS'S!! So the next time you hear
of abuse, dont think of it as a simple little thing that happened in the
past, its not, see the real meaning. It is something they live with each
day of there live, and all we as husbands and wifes can do to help, is
just be there, understand, as much as possible, and love them very much!!!
