likewater, I totally understand what you're going through. I was sexually abused by my mother and 100's of men she brought home. She is an evil woman and I hate her. I don't feel any shame in saying that. You're right, it does present special confusion and obstacles for healing. I came from this woman and yet she never held me in a loving or maternal way. She held me down with my arms over my head with an evil grin on her face while she let strange men brutally abuse me. She was not a mom to me, EVER.
This kind of abuse messes with every part of who you are. I'm a 38 year old female, and I struggle to look in the mirror because I see her face. I get dressed in the dark and comb my hair in the dark, because I can't stand the look of my face, because I see hers.
