Childhood Surviving an abusive childhood

[Tinyflame]

Bless you for the courage to do what you did for your sisters @road2theriches , despite such cost. What love and courage. You are a remarkable person, and will be and are a remarkable parent, I have no doubt. :notworthy: :hug:

I was just thinking about this very thing early this morning, IME, it's never about who does what is wrong, ultimately, because unfortunately those are the horrific and sorrowful parts of life. But despite the consequences of what remains, more strongly remembered and more important are the moments and memories of those who did the opposite.

Thank you for sharing that part of your story. Welcome to you. :)

Thank you for sharing your story. You were so brave and that is awesome.
I believe a lot of the symptoms can be healed over time but the memories never fade.
I was able to heal most of my symptoms but then I sabotaged them when I discovered one of my supposed close friends was not happy for me that I was in a much better place that I worked very hard to get to then started lying about me to others. This led me to sabotage everything I did to rise above. So I am in a place of trying to heal again.

I wish I could find others that could relate to me. I'm sure there are others.

Thank you for sharing. My heart goes out to you for your difficult childhood. I had bad experiences as a child too. Not them same circumstance as you but I had similar feelings. My mom was mean. Very mean and my Dad wasn’t emotionally available to help. Probably because he was abused too. Anyway I always tried to look for any positive thing I could take out of the chaos. I do believe that made me a better person as an adult. My positive attitude, the way I chose to look at my situation, kept me from perpetuating the abuse to others I think. I saw what bad was and I didn’t want to be that way. I struggle with many issues related to my PTSD but I am thankful for my choices how to deal worth it.
