Living with domestic violence is debilitating. Healing after it is not much easier.In her memoir of surviving domestic violence, author Amy Daumit takes you on a journey through her 16-year abusive relationship and marriage, reasons for staying, the difficult decision to leave, and the healing that followed.It all began as a blissful, high-school romance. But, within months, there were signs she refused to see. It seemed that everything he did involved trying to control her. Soon, he blamed her for all that was not right in his life, and she paid dearly for her "wrongdoing" with emotional and physical attacks.After contemplating suicide and nearly dropping out of law school, she found the strength to walk out the door. But leaving was only the beginning of a long journey of learning to live with, and for, herself.She was left with only a shallow resemblance of her former self staring back at her in the mirror. Today Amy is sharing her story of survival and healing so that others can find hope. She believes life can be beautiful, if you only believe in yourself and find it.

Amy Daumit is a teacher, writer, speaker, and free spirit. She holds undergraduate degrees in Elementary and Early Childhood Education and her Juris Doctorate. What she really loves, however, is helping others and sharing in their journey. Blogging became a part of her personal journey to healing and soon blossomed into a book; forget me not, learning to live with me and for me. The book became the inspiration for Forget Me Not Advocacy Group, a nonprofit focused on stopping domestic violence before it starts, through education and community awareness, while supporting those who are healing from abuse. Through Forget Me Not Advocacy Group, Amy is able to integrate her love of teaching and her love of helping others, while working to provide individuals with the tools they need to recognize, avoid, or heal from abuse. There is healing that can happen and you can find the person you were always meant to be. You just have to believe in yourself and find your happiness.
