I feel like i almost died when i was a child cause i was choked till i beg for air. My abuser is my close relative and i still see him till this day.. i never confronted him on what happen that day. i am still scared of what happen and it still haunts me. Some days it gets unbearable that i just couldn't take it anymore. i am on edge all the time.

I'm so sorry to hear about what happened to you. I can see how something so traumatizing would cause you to be unable to manage. It must be even harder to have to interact with your abuser so often knowing what they've done to you. I do hope that when you feel able to you reach out to talk to someone, be it the listeners on this site or a professional. Sending love and hugs your way. heart
