I was in an abusive relationship many years ago. I was doing ok for a couple years once everything calmed down (he stalks me and has other people report to him what I am doing). i moved over 2000 miles away to an entire new state. Felt like i had a fresh start and wasn't scared anymore. I felt free for once. I was off the radar. I dont ever want him to know where I am at. I deleted and cut ties with most of our friends who probably still talk to him. Anyways, I had to move back to our hometown for financial reasons. I got myself a good paying job now and i plan on working my ass off so i can move away in 5 years. He saw me riding my bike recently; therefore, he knows i was in town. I had a panic attack. I dont want to go backwards mentally, I've made good progress and moving away definitely made me a stronger person. I feel like me living here, feeling scared again is not good for me mentally and physically. I feel like i have to watch my back all the time. What can i do to help me mentally until I can afford to move far away? I wish i could just forget him and everything he has ever said to me. How can i forget?
