Brittany Stewart Survivor Sister Story

Survivor Sister Brittany Stewart speaks out breaking her silence about domestic violence.

 

I was so in love! So I thought. This man was amazing then I realized something is off! Once I realized that upset him because I started pulling back and none of his sex acts could change how I felt! Next thing I know I’m being choked for using my phone because he thinks I’m cheating. Within that same time frame he choked me again. So that’s twice within minutes. It was devastating wondering is he going to let go, not being able to breathe as he’s yelling at the top of his lungs choking me as if this makes his day. Unbelievable!
I was scared to death. My neck is sore and swollen as I am writing this. After he finished choking me I just sat there quiet all day scared to move or do anything.
The following day he woke up and must have wanted a cigarette since I didn’t give him one although he never asked he then started becoming confrontational. To the point that I felt very unsafe. He’s yelling at me threatening to violate me he says. So I asked him to leave. He then got more upset and begin scarring me more and more I said just move please so I can go because he had me boxed in my room. He then pulls out a thick black cord and holds it with his two hands as if he’s going to kill me with it. I never experienced this in my life! I was begging and pleading with him to please stoppppppp please let me go. Why would you wanna hurt me “I LOVE YOU”!!! He stopped and went in the bathroom threw himself on the floor and said God why why why does this keep happening to me? Then he yells i just don’t wanna be here no more. Yells out he’s ginn kill him self. I took that as an opportunity to throw on pants and run out the house! He then must have realized I ran out the house so he came out as well and asks so your calling police? I said NOTHING and kept talking with the police. So he was coming out the door when I tried to walk towards the side of my house but I didn’t make it he punched me hard as heck on the side of my head as he quickly walked off since I called the police. Police came etc etc
I can’t rest I’m scared every little noise I jump up! Thus can’t be LIFE!!! I am so thankful to be alive and in one piece ????????????????????????
