My ex-husband forced me to beg for money outside a church and take out loans in my own name while I was on maternity leave caring for our little daughter. He did not work, drank heavily, and subjected me to emotional and physical abuse. I endured it because I was afraid of being left alone with my child. In my first relationship, I spent many years with a tyrant. I lived as if in a cage, where I was not allowed to do anything outside the home without my husband’s permission. He stripped me of my identity and destroyed the person I used to be. As a result of that relationship, I was granted a Group 3 disability due to a psychiatric condition. Now, all of that is behind me. I have paid off my debts and loans, and I live with my five-year-old daughter. I have filed for divorce and child support, stabilized my condition, and am undergoing treatment. I also work as a caregiver for elderly people. I am not complaining about life. I am building a new, peaceful life for myself and my daughter, but I would be grateful for help with medication and clothing for my little girl. It would mean a lot to know that someone is there to support me.
