Haajin123-
just remember, the best thing you can do for your child is to take care of your own mental health and well-being so that YOU can be supportive to him and a positive, non-abusive role model in his life. Try to stay grateful that you and your son do not have to live daily with the emotional abuse, and remind yourself that you CAN get through this, one day at a time. "abusing yourself" as you put it would only leave your son with a hurt mom. Stand strong. (((hugs!))
