I haven't been diagnosed, I don't know who does this or what do to, I am 35 and I feel like my life has been out of control for years and I don't want to do this anymore

I was physically abused from the age of 2 by my Dad who was a Vietnam Vet, he held me at gunpoint in front of my mother for hours before nearly beating her to death..I get sick at the same time every year around the same time this happened, high fevers, hallucinations, it has happened every year since I was 3.

Sexual, physical and emotional abuse starting at 8 - 15 with my step father and then when I moved out I was sexually abused by a church member.

I am obsessive compulsive which I take medication for as well as depression.

Hoping that I can find out more and work out where I go from here.
 
Hello and welcome, I'm sorry to read about what happened with your father. Are you currently receiving any therapy? You will find a lot of people here who have had similar experiences here and hopefully you'll feel supported as well as being able to support others through the difficult times we all face.
