One week ago I left my boyfriend because
he was verbally abusing me and last
saturday hit me so I would shut up! (I'm
5months pregnant) At the time we were
living with his mother in a small house
with his 5sisters and 2 dogs.
If anything I was depressed. THey would
say things to him because I went to my
fathers house everyday to cook and eat
because there was never any food at their
home. Also, my boyfriend came home from
work everyday and yelled at me, called me
a health forum in front of his friends,
and never took the time to see how sad I
was living in that house! I was a junior
at a prestigious university... I gave that
up for him... so we could form a family
together.
He tells me i'm going crazy and need to
get help for being bipolar. I understand
that that illness is characterized by
extreme mood swings... well so is
pregnancy! I am very upset because I think
he is the one who needs to be treated for
bipolar. His father is bipolar and I have
seen some of the same traits in my ex as
well.
I am shocked that both he and his mother
say I need to be evaluated. Also when he
spoke to my family he told them he never
hit me. Good thing I took pictures....

Wow, nice guy! Run, don't walk, and get
away from this creep. He is abusive and
this will not change. You deserve better.
Yes, pregnancy causes mood swings. It is
an emotional time. You don't need the
stress of being in that house. Take care
of you and your baby. Best of luck!

Get the heck of of Dodge now! Before you
loose that unborn child. Because it can
happen. My X Brother in law threw my
sister down a whole flight of stairs when
she was 6 months pregnant. She use to go
to work with sun glasses so her black eyes
would not show. He beat her something
terrible. You don't not to be in that
situation. I have no respect for ANY man
that would lay a hand on a woman.
