S5 EP16: Dave's Story - A Man's Resilience

Send us a text Dave grew up in an almost perfect household: calm, loving and trusting. That all changed when he met and married an abusive woman. In Dave" words "By all accounts she resembles a narcissist. She pretended to be a wonderful mother to our children and a loving wife to me. Behind closed doors, it was a different story" Dave was a natural father as a stay at home dad who was respected and loved by his children. His now ex wife alienated me from my children with her lies and manipulation. When he left the marriage, he tried taking his life. However, it was the day after that he found his resilience to fight. With a strong foundation of what he knew as a healthy upbringing, he knew life wasn’t meant to be like this. Five years after his separation he has PTSD, but a great relationship with one of his two children. He has met a soul mate who brings him joy, strength and love. It"s the start os a real fairytale for Dave. Dave"s story is a brave one, and sadly not uncommon. Dave shows that there is light at the end of the tunnel.
