Well, I just didn't know what percentage it would take.
From what you say, I would be a victim. I had what I used to call a bad childhood. Nothing physical, all mental. Recently when I spent several sessions with my therapist doing nothing but give examples - no 'how I felt' - just cut and dried examples. One after another, no repeats. After about 6 hours of this, and I could still keep listing, it dawned on me (as in my gut for a change, not just in the brain) that what I'd gone through was really abuse.
Could you post the characteristics of a victim? I just don't feel like one.....
Thanks
Mel
