How do you feel months to years after the end of your affair?

An excerpt from Melanie Tonia Evans website:

[From abuse] you have suffered severe soul violation – you feel depressed, emotionally and mentally fractured, confused, unworthy, needy and constantly triggered. None of this eases and the [xMM/parent] is absolutely unavailable, unwilling and incapable of taking your pain away – there is no resolution there.

It’s time when we “get it” that it’s time, to take any opportunity to do the most important work of our life, which is to disconnect from the [xMM/parent], withdraw all of our attention from them, turn inwards to ourselves and find and heal the broken parts of ourselves that the [xMM/parent] is reflecting back at us with his or her traumatising behaviour.

These are all the parts of us that feel unlovable and not enough, and that we only have worth if someone else is loving us, rather than knowing we have enough worth to love ourselves and leave if they don’t.
