violence or discipline..?
It all started when i was around 9 or 10, at the time my father (later to fnd out he's my stepfather) was constantly "discipling" me and my sister (biological sister) it would be for anything; not picking up toys, not listening to him, or even crying whenever i was scolded. i was always a sensitive kid so i cried a lot. one day my parents had some friends over and they had children as well, i was very good friends with one of them. we were in a room located in a backroom inside of my parents apartment at the time, it was were the water heater was kept. i had an ipod (i've always wanted one) at the time, we were on youtube watching simple videos and my friend decided to search up something innapropriate. a bit after, her mom had came into the room, i believe they were leaving. she saw this and before she could say anything i instinctively ran to the bathroom. i was terrified of my dad, after she told him that i had searched it up he made his way to the door of the bathroom and tried to break it down. i was scared so i opened it, that was when he forcefully took me to that room again (by this time everyone had left) he grabbed a wodden hanger, approxamitely 3 inches thick and hit me on my bottom until it broke. i had a large bruise and could not sit down for almost a week. i didnt tell anyone, he locked me in that room the sae day afterwards with nothing. i remember crying all night, not once did i receive an apology, i was wrongfully accused and i couldn't dare to tell him he was wrong, that wasn't the only time. at the time i didn't see anything wrong with the things he did i thought it was normal i was terrified to tell anyone. he's recently stopped, ever since i found out about how he wasn't my real father. i had to add things up and find out by myself, and when i tell my mom about these things she just told me i deserved it. i've been smoking weed illegally to try and forget, when i get caught they call me a low life, a disgrace, a shame, an embarrasment.. they think im crazy, i've had 4 therapists and one sycologist but not once did i tell them about the things he would do to me. i dont even speak to my step dad anymore. i have social anxiety, emotional outbreaks, and trauma. all this anger inside me reminds me everyday about what he did. they treat my half brother (stepdad & moms kid) like a god. its not fair and im tired of hiding this, im just afraid no one will believe me.

I understand how hard trauma can be for people. I'm sorry you had to go through that and were accused of something that you didn;t search up. This isn't right. He should have asked before doing anything. And the fact that there was a mark left was wrong. You're not crazy for being angry for people that have caused you hurt and fear. I think you should talk about this with your therapist or whoever you see now. So you can process it and understand why it makes you angry and they will be able to talk to you about that and help with that. And I'm sorry that you're being mistreated while the other kid is being treated so nicely. I'm sorry that your parents called you names that would put you down. That's never okay to put another person down. I hope you feel better and know that you're not alone. We're here to support you and listen to you. You can get through this. I know how unfair life can be. And if you ever want to talk I'm here or I'm sure other listeners would be willing to talk to you about this issue as well. (Stay safe and take care of yourself)
