I am suffering from forced marriage
1
I have been in a forced marriage for 5 years. I have been suffering from depression since I got married, and how I am having panic attacks when ever my husband attempts to touch me. My parents and my husband have made my life a living hell.
I don't know what sin I have committed to deserve this. I have lost my peace of mind and happiness. I have lost all interest in this life. I wish I would just die because I am too tired of everything.
Sometimes I feel like just giving up and just live carelessly, I am so lonely and my heart yearns for love. If marriage is done to done to protect one from adultery, then forced marriages makes someone vulnerable to such acts.
My husband doesn't get his desires satisfied by me because we've never been intimate in a peaceful way that'll grant him satisfaction. Also, my desires can never be satisfied by someone I despise. Parents should know this.
I don't know what to do because I feel like I am going mad. If suicide were allowed in Islam, I would be long gone..
