I am very happy (and saddened) to see so many replies! It is unfortunate that so many have been hurt but wonderful that so many are voicing their pain, letting it be known even if it's just the pc world you are telling it to! Thank you Ophilia, your comment was very kind! We all need a place to let this anger out that we can't let out on those deserving of it! I have more dear abuser letters to write, but each one takes a lot out of me to allow myself to feel what I've been trying to conceal for so long. But I can feel the healing working already. Even if in just a small way!
