Like so many others, I'm a bit nervous, where to start, with this stuff I guess.
I was not allowed to play outside with other children or to have kids in the house ever, or indeed to have friends. At around age 6 my then undiagnosed schizophrenic mum repeatedly held my head under the bath water whilst banging the back of my head on the bath, while screaming abuse at me. I nearly drowned. My dad intervened for once.
At around 8 she came after me with a kitchen knife, but I ran fast and locked myself in the bathroom until she calmed down. It was all very 'here's Johnny'. She repeated the coming after me with a weapon and threatening to end me a few times.
At 9 she stripped me and held me naked to the front window while people outside could see me. At 10 I was herded into a convent to see a dead nun in her coffin who was still twitching. I was supposed to kiss her ring.
When I was 11 I was run over, at 12 I witnessed up close a woman cyclist get run over by a lorry, she died in front of me
At 15 my loving parents threw me out onto the streets to fend for myself, I had to sleep on a park bench.
I was in a car accident, the car rolled over a few times, I was lucky to escape with just whiplash and bruising.
3 times through childhood mum pulled me by the hair and then cut it all off so that I looked like a concentration camp prisoner. She told everyone that I'd done it.
I also constantly had "demons" shaken out of me by my delusional mum
I could go on but it's getting too long.
