I hate that my best friend is still financially dependent on their abusive parents. Every so often they have to go back to their parents’ house and get retraumatized and I have to do what damage control I can but it’s exhausting

It took me a lot of money saving and staying at best friends houses but I was finally able to get out! it’s extremely hard and exhausting but it’s possible just continue to be there for them sometimes that’s all you can do! but just remember take some time for yourself as well because I didn’t realize how much of a toll it took on my bffs bc it was not a normal thing for them so I had to give them some grace for being there for me and let them know i was just grateful to have someone there
