I understand where you are coming from ...

... Never discount how deeply you were wounded by emotional abuse ... I can see the scars from the physical and sexual abuse and know when they've healed ... However, I cannot see the scars from the verbal and emotional abuse ... Therefore, I cannot tell how deep they are or how long it's going to take them to heal ... If Ever ...

...
I'm sorry you were abused in such a manner ... No child deserves that kind of treatment ... !!!
