My husband pushed and punched me yesterday during a quarrel. We have been together for over 25 years, and he has been verbally abusive before but never physically. I feel completely dissociated. I don't know what to do or think or feel. I have actually been really nice to him since then, but I know I am not handling the situation at all, just running from it. I am really scared of what will happen when I do - if I ever do. Maybe I'll just keep pretending nothing happened, like when I was a child?
