chilhood abuse TW
Well hi some of the listeners here know me, i think that like everyone mee too ive had my problems,from birth i was neglected by my biological parents, i do not talk that much about it but it surely affects me then when i was 3 years i got adopted by a family, i think i should be very thankful that i got adopted as i think living in residential care is not the best noyrishment a child can get, right? Anyway i love my adoptive parents and i would do anything for them but sometimes i get really angry!:( they used to physically and emotionally abuse me, like pulling her slapping hitting with belt sputting and u know head banging me to the wall once even one of my parents shoved part of my shoulder with a blade cause i got them angry i was a troubled child but i was behaved too u know!! Anyway this kept going on until 16 years of age then i started having suicidal ideation and my guidance had to report to the social workers, so from rhere started the worse argument got much worse emotionally and starting zoning out getting thin and i stayed for 3 weeks only on milk, anyway long story made short had a fight with them and decided to leave home and i ended in a shelter.i stayed there for a year and since i already was a self harmer when i was at the shelter i went all lot and by that i mean everyday deep scarring my left arm which are still scarred till today during that year i ended up in a mental hospital and had to stay there for a week under an observation order, while at the shelter i got also sexually exploited infront of the shelter by a man wgen he told if i wanted a ride and so i did( i know its my fault :() well now im back with parents and now i suffer have been diagnosed for a year now already, that,i have depression and anxiety and im schzio affective and i dont kno what that means haaahhaa anyway i also have been told i have borderline personality traits but have been noot yet diagnosed( will see) anyway just wanted to share my experienxe i hadd good times too in my life borh with parents and in the shelter my aim in life is to raise awarness on child abuse as i believe every kind of abuse can lead to death sonehow and i want that people stop stigmatizing mental health as sonetimes its much more serious than physical health.
Hi Iamasurvivor. I know life has been very hard for you and you have been through a lot. But I appreciate the way you are determined to get better and spread awareness about various issues.
It seems you are a positive person and I hope things work out in your favor.
I went through abuse too but certainly not as traumatic as what you have had to experience. Just your name should encourage you as a survivor.
What is difficult for me is to just find my real self and not feel as though I was the one who was at fault for all the beating and abuse. There is no fault. There just Is.
Your words tell me your head is spinning with a thousand memories. Slow down the thoughts by breathing and lay aside the hurt and pain and try to take steps that go forward, that you take yourself to help you out of your trauma. It's one step at a time. Don't eat the whole elephant.
Keep posting.
yes in factsometimes i just have relapses of all the memories and stuff i went through :( i have feelings of guilt a lot and i still have them since again im living with parents so yeah everyday i live through it, i just need money right now really so i can get out and that will hopefully soon happen :) i hope you are doing alright, safe hugs :)
