So Incredibly Low And Scared

Sorry to hear about the beatings. You can still come here and share your feelings and we won't mind how you look. We know there is a beautiful person inside who is hurting.

Thanks Tessa - things are a bit out of control at the moment...they have escalated again tonight. Wish I could leave...so scared right now.
 
You are definitely very strong and caring! As a disabled person, I am grateful that there are people out there like you who try to protect us. You definitely do not deserve the beatings!

Thanks for your kind words. At the moment I don't feel like I am doing a very good job of protecting him...just wish I could make it all go away. There is no way he can defend himself at least I can try and curl into a ball so that it doesnt hurt so much. Hopefully I win the Lotto and we can find somewhere for the two of us.
 
Missing the Sunshine - I'm so sorry to hear this is happening to you! I think of you often - trying to find a solution for you. Please hang in there and do what you can to take care of yourself. Remember - you absolutely don't deserve this kind of treatment. Right now you have chosen to walk the path of the martyr, for better or for worse. It's not an easy path - it takes someone very strong in will and character to put themselves in harms way for someone else.

Thank you so much for your thoughts - I constantly feel alone - however it feels nice to know that someone is out there.

At the moment I don't feel very strong at all - everytime I look at my brother and see any kinds of marks/bruises I count the amount of times that I have let him down - I just wish that I could take them all for him. I just want all of this to go away.

Thanks for your time!
 
Checking in on you and sending you strength and healing. I understand it is not easy but we are thinking of you.

Please take the best care possible,
hugs,

Bright and I are thinking of you this morning... We're sending you a sailor's rope used on the large ships and some magical footrests that you can use for your feet. Oh yes, and a big fluffy cloud that you can shape up into a chair, a blanket, a hat, and anything else that might protect you.

Sounds cozy - thank you for your thoughts, I really appreciate you thinking of me.
 
My heart goes out to you (((((missing_the_sunshine))))), I find this horrible that your father is taking out his rage on you and your brother. Does you T know about all this ? Is there any way you and T can build a security plan to get both of you out of your father's grip ? He is commiting a criminal act by beating you and your brother. As many have stated, you're strong and a good person not to leave your brother alone in this situation. Have you ever talked to a police officer about what you are living ? I better stop as situations like this gets me mad. I understand you may be scared to do the things I'm suggesting, I know I was scared when I was with an abusive husband, but I did finally open up with a T who helped me put a security plan in place. I know you must feel trapped, even more seeing your brother in a helpless situation. Count on your strenght to guide you to the right people. Will light a candle for you today.

Thanks for your reply Froggie...um, my T doesnt know about the beatings. I know that she should but I always promised myself that I would never tell her. When I was in High School I told a teacher about it when he asked about my face being bruised a few weeks in a row. The teacher then told the school psych who contacted my parents and I then got the biggest hiding ever and my brother got it worse. So there is no way that I will ever tell anyone...I mentioned it on here because I know there will be no fall back. There are many others out there who have it far worse so I just keep reminding myself of that.

Thanks again for your reply Froggie
 
Thankyou for telling us here where you are safe with friends. I watch so much of this trauma around me where I work and I know it is a hard situation. I wish we could make it stop. I will send caring thoughts to you as you struggle with this pain,both internal and external.
((((HUGS))))
 
Thank you for your honest response missing_the_sunshine. If I were in your shoes, I'd probably do the same. I will put you and your brother in my prayers so that things will positively happen for both of you. ((((((HUGS))))))
