I spent a year in my marriage without children; that was the reason that my ex-husband mistreated me. He used to come with other girls and had sex in front of me; He forced me to watch them doing sex. When they finished He forced me to wipe their sex and I did it many time; It didn't affect me because I thought every woman had the worst and I didn't tell to anyone.
It came a time when I was very tired, I left that man and got married to someone worse than the first. Apart of polygamy and physical violence which is simple in our community my husband is a robber: if I buy a cloth for myself or a plate, He sells it, I can't keep aything in my house.
I am a woman who tries to look for the money but He always robs me. Now I have rented a house but I haven't moved yet. I will soon leave him. Thank you for this workshop where I got a chance to talk about myself. Actually, I had a secret: I had planned to kill my husband at night with a little hoe. I can't bear to see him walking around with all the things He's got me endured. Now, I have changed my mind because of this trauma healing workshop.
