> No. NO. PLEASE don't shut up.
> It's really, really okay what's you've written.
> You sound angry and like you dumped a bit more of the poison, and Babble is a great, safe place for that.You know you made me see that I am still angry. I thought I was okay with it, but now that I am finally doing some positive things with my life, like playing the trumpet again, taking gardening classes, and exercising, it makes me very angry that my parents did what they did, and it effected my life in negative ways and I made some bad choices because of it. I guess I am really angry. I wonder what my T is going to think of that? I must have surpressed my feelings of anger growing up because I had to for my own protection.
> Also remember, so many people read and don't post. Or maybe just not yet. You could be helping someone right this minute feel stronger about having lived through the same kind of torture, just by their reading such honest things from you. Like maybe someone even in therapy, but too scared to tell their T. what really happened to them....you never know. There's just so much power and support in realizing you're not alone in stuff.I hope you are right it is helping someone but at the same time I hope stuff like this didn't happen to anyone else. But the sad thing is child abuse happens everyday.
> Happyflower, you are awesome. Really. You have done the one thing your mother nor anyone else involved can ever take away - turned your back on evil and abuse and brought beautiful children into the world where you love and cherish them daily. That kind of REAL mothering causes God to wipe a tear of joy from His eye, IMHO.
